Week2, Session 1


        Salam Guys...!!!!
        After learning some components about Data and Information, in this second week on the 27th of January,  I also learned about the Qualities of valuable information. The structures of these components are orderly structured and understandable because it consists of accuracy, verification, time, organization, accessibility, uses, and cost-effectiveness.Moreover, I also learned about the Economics of Information whose the classifications are two: Reach and Richness. Actually, I wondered about these concepts; nonetheless, the explanation about Reach refers to the number of people, at work or at home sharing each other the information, and Richness comprises of three materials: bandwidth, customization, and interactivity, which are about the processes of inverting or converting the information to show to the audience.

       Beside these useful lessons, students were suggested to form a group of 5 and were also given the tasks to do. The task was about Data and Information Management. My group initially began coming up with some ideas about the topic. We realized that management is the organization; therefore, it had to be Data and Information Organization for showing to the audience. Everything had been well-done because we had come up that this Management could be prepared at any time and in any conditions depending on the types of management, for example, doing presentation, advertisement, banking and so on.

      As I've been describing about what I've been doing in the class, we gradually pursued learning more about The main Kinds of Information Technology, which are Architecture and Infrastructure. Both components, the details of IT, are very crucial to analyze and understand, it is because if there were no these materials, we'd not know the categories as well as the processes of working of IT. To be more serious, my lecturer coherently indicated all students about Globalization- globalization 1.0, globalization 2.0 (first half), globalization 2.0 (second half), globalization 3.0, and globalization 3.0 (continue).

       We finished our sessions, and my previous group which was formed of 5 and also the other groups were given another task which was to do the 10 minutes group presentation about
                      How IT Architecture and IT Infrastructure interrelated?

Week 1, Session 1



           Salam everyone..!!! Welcome to the second trimester learning reflections..!! This is my pleasure desire that I have a chance to share all of you about my experience as well as reflections on ICT learning in this trimester again.
       
         Anyway, learning ICT is the most interesting way of learning in AIU. As it is the first week of the ICT systematic education and also the beginning of the second trimester, my lecturer provided me and my friends some guideline about assessment that will being done; additionally, the first session that we've started in the class was on Friday-21st of January, which was about Data and Information. Actually, we didn't go any details about these points; however, we learned and categorized the differences between these points such as Data is an Input and Information is an Output. Students were also asked to fill up a form which was about the brief personal information of each. For that activity, we found the pairs to ask each other about the details and fill up on that paper.
 
      After we filled up that form and reported the details to the class, my lecturer asked us the questions as well as classified between Data and Information on the things that we'd filled up. Everyone and I got it really clear about the differences between these components.
