Introspection of ICT application inLIS



The road I travelled with ICT application in LIS indeed was challenging though I enjoy the challenges that brought along.  The most critical challenge that I ever  face is 5 minutes presentation and I am telling you twisting and locking of the tongue as well as the stage fright drained my confidence as a result I end up judging myself giving me low score on the board comparing myself with the rest of my classmate. Despite the complements they gave me, I felt like I did opposite of what they were telling me.

ICT application opens my eyes in different ways: when I was doing open access assignment I gain more exposure on what does it means by “open access” as it is a trend of the century. My academic writing has been improved as I am planning to be a future “PHD student in LIS”. I also gained broader knowledge about web 2.0, social network(Twitter) that I normal join with less information for fun purpose, QR codes , internet filtering . Now I am able to debate and express my views with the colleagues’ that have less information or uninformed of the importance of social networks. 

I was always looking forward for my ICT application in LIS class because of the information am going to get and following day I will brag to my colleagues about all the new information. With this class I gained a lot now I need a stage to put my knowledge into practise or practical so that I can give myself a pat and say “ I created this  and that  for my work”  with the knowledge I gained from ICT application in LIS. Now I am ready to share information with the world.

Now am left with wiki project to finalise, I must admit it is not easy as it seem to be nevertheless am almost there with my group. As for my twitter project is another story that I will tell some other day

Let me take this opportunity and thank my classmate with all the inspiration that inspires me with my studies not forgetting to thank the giant I was stand on her shoulder while I was enrolled for this class Dr. Zinn I am out of word to thank you.

Wiki



Wiki is a website which allows its users to add, modify, or delete its content.  Even educators endorse importance of wiki. With Wiki you do not have to know all the complicated HTML and coding computer language in order for you to create website. I am looking forward to explore my creativity with wikis space.
 With ICT applications I feel like I am standing in the shoulders of a giant equip me all the essential information. My skills are sharpened each day that I attend class. Now the ball is in my court to utilise every slice of information that I pull in this class.

Good luck to those of you who will present next week!
