http://snipurl.com/kzhi8


Recently this incident has happen one of my friend, she is a working person but she doesn’t have any certificate so she decide to take courses to study so that she can upgrade and increase knowledge of herself but she has no extra time to study and the most important things is the finance problem because she has not much money to pay the fees. So she decided to find it through online because she heard some of her friends said that online learning is much cheaper and have time management. While she is looking for her course in online learning she found that many people study through online learning but most of the people who studying are the people from European country. She said that Malaysian people also studying but not many people compare to European country because she said that most of the Malaysian people doesn’t believe what will happen in online are true. Finally she found out the online course that has make her satisfaction and now she has extra time to study and work. In addition, she find that her time management was very good.

Poll Results (Week 5)

http://snipurl.com/ktje4

Does Online Learning limit socialising with the community?


Poll Results (Week 5)
According to this week's poll results, 44.4% of the voters responded "Yes" whereas 55.6 of the voters responded "No" to whether Online Learning limit socialising with the community.

The majority of the voters have responded that Online Learning does not limit socializing with the community and this could be because the voters feel that students can still communicate with the social world while they are involved in Online Learning. Students can still be exposed to the community and socialize with one another even though it is through a computer screen. For example, any individual can communicate with one another through many ways such as e-mailing, chatting online or through a web camera (web cam) and also through other ways to socialize with others.

The remaining voters have responded that Online Learning does limit socializing with the community and this could be because the voters feel that students do not get much exposure and approach to Online Learning. Maybe the voters feel that the students do not have the chance to talk and discuss matters regarding their subjects and while doing their projects as well and do not get a hands on experience while learning online.

Well, there are no right and wrong to which kind of learning one prefers and how they socialize among one another as long as they get the education they are looking for and can study effectively. People socialize differently towards others and that’s why some individuals prefer Online Learning and some prefer Traditional Learning.

Now, do you feel that people who are involved in Online Learning will be detached from socializing with others? Please feel free to share your opinions.

Thank You, cheers. :-)

Effect Of Online Learning

Based on the video shown above, it shows the disciplinary issues that takes place in a class many years ago. Disciplinary issues in class happened in Traditional Learning. This is because the way the lecture was teaching is wrong. He was scolding the students who were getting low marks for their exam. Besides that, when the lecture left for just a few minutes, the class was having fun and making so much noise and behaving inappropriately. This has made the lecturer conclude that the class has less discipline among the students. Moreover, when the lecturer is teaching in front of the class, the students were making noise for no purpose and the lecturer started to scold the whole class.

In my opinion, the lecturer should not have bad temper when he is teaching his students because the moment he begins scolding, the students will feel unhappy and they will feel be in the mood to study anymore. So, the lecturer should comfort the whole class when they get low marks for the test. Besides that, the lecture should not scold the whole class when they were making noise but instead he should lower down his voice and explain the problem to the class. This will make the class feel comfortable when the lecturer is teaching.

So, compared to Traditional Learning and Online Learning, Online Learning is the most unlikely to undergo this kind of problem as students just have to face the computer screen while they are studying. In addition, students will not copy each others' work because the students will find out the answer by themselves. Moreover, their discipline will become much better.

So, do you agree that Traditional Learning has discipline issues compared to Online Learning?

Poll Results (Week 4)

http://snipurl.com/km6sm

If Online Learning were to be implemented in Malaysia, how would you react to it?

Poll Results (Week 4)

Based on this week's poll results, 72% of the voters feel 'happy' if Online Learning were to be implemented in Malaysia, 15% of the voters feel 'sad' and 13% of the voters responded that they 'do not know'.

The majority of the voters have voted that they would feel ‘happy’ if Online Learning were to be implemented in Malaysia because they can study according to their time. The reason most voters feel so could also be because they feel that it gives them much more freedom to access their learning materials and other information quickly and easily.

15% of the voters have voted that they would feel ‘sad’ if Online Learning were to be implemented in Malaysia because those voters prefer going to an education centre to learn. This reason could be because those voters can socialize among their friends and discuss about their education with one another. They can also do their assignments or projects together and communicate and establish their learning skills and ability as well. Maybe they also like a different or outdoor environment to learn than learning at home.

13% of the voters felt uncertain as to how Online Learning in Malaysia would make them feel. Perhaps these voters like the old learning system and probably they do not know if they can accept Online Learning to be implemented here in Malaysia or if it is appropriate for them.

Well, from this we can see that Malaysians want to experience Online Learning in their own country. Hence, it has not been implemented yet.

Now, do you think it would be a good opportunity to allow students and other individuals to experience Online Learning in Malaysia?
