Week 10

            As we know that lecture week 10 ,11, and 12 had finished since in week 9, so for this week, there is nothing beside group assignment on Designing website in Google Site. Students were asked to form a group of 3 to 4 people in order to work on this assignment. This project was regarding to the information of the class, the activities that we have done in the class, and the new understanding and reflection after participating from the class. Moreover, we had to show a unique picture which completely showed the interaction between students and lecturer in the class. This was my pleasure of having a chance to work with my classmates in order to get succeed because it was such a valuable knowledge which we would be able to use in the future. Even it was not so professional like the others, but it was useful and acceptable to work things out. We started with the introduction of  the members in our group and some information about our interesting class. Spending more than two hours in the lab of the library, my group found out that there were so many things that we needed to include in this website in order to show our activities in the class. However, we'll try our best to reach our goal.

Week 9

 
        Going through to every week of the lecture, my understanding had been added to a higher level. For this week, it was a noticeable week which was different from before. In fact, for this week, we were supposed to continue the lecture week 7, but my lecture has skipped the lessons of week 7, 8, and 9 and completely jumped up to lesson week 10. Everything had its own reason when something happened, for this week, it was because it was the ninth week which soon reached the end of the second trimester, so he wanted to bring the last two weeks for students to do the last group assignment. According to what we have learned with him in this week, it was different from the previous week because he had guided us all the lectures on week 10,11, and 12. Even there were so many things to be understood, my lecturer ushered me only the main points of each lesson in order to make easy for students to understand.
     Basically, the tenth lesson was about Trends in the Internet and WWW. The question which was able to provoke me to recognize was What is the difference between Internet and World Wide Web? not only this question, some detail which extremely described this lesson is Analyzing Web 2.0, classification of web 2.0 site, and Comparison between Web 2.0 and 1.0. Beside these Webs, Web 3.0 was also included in this week for students to recognize and understand more.
     For the next lesson, it was about Developing Simple Applications for managing Information and other resource using available tools. For this lecture, Web 1.0, Web 2.0, and Web 3.0 had been recapped to provide more details about Internet. Additionally, Web Applications and Web Information System had been added to exaggerate the concepts of this lesson. Web Applications was shown to give the details of detail classification of each Web whereby Web Information System told the concepts of WWW.

    For the last lesson, it was the same as the previous lesson, but  interesting points have been pointed out to make thing clear. There were about Google Applications, and How to design Website.
    What an amazing lesson...!!! this is what I've been thinking because I really want to know how to design my own website. I'll try my best to do that.

Week 8

     Hi everyone... !! this was the eighth week of my participation in the class. We started class as usual, but since a few weeks, we have changed the class to the lab of the library in order to get convenient when students wanted to improve their study on searching information. For this week, I and the other students were asked to form a group of 3 in terms of doing some searching on certain topic. My group was conducting on Methodology and some categories of it. Actually, I did not understand at all about this lesson, but when I did research with my group mates, I got some clear information which was shown by my friends. Basically, Methodology is a collection of Tools, Procedure, and Documentation Aids which help the system developers to implement a new information system. As we went through to the classifications of the Methodology, we could see that there were such a number of them which were very useful. However, the most common and important one are Gane and Sarson (STRADIS), Information Engineering (IE), Jackson System Development, Prototyping/Iterative Approach, and Structured Approach. My group was supposed to conducts on these components in order to clarify the meaning and concepts which would be used in the future.
     STRADIS is based on the building of a logical model system, using graphical to enable users, analysts, designers to get a clear and common picture of the system and how its parts fit together to meet user's meet. IE is an approach to designing and developing information system as well as an architectural approach to planning, analyzing, designing, and implementing applications within an enterprise. JSD is a method of  system development that covers software life cycle either directly, or by providing a framework into which more specialized techniques can fit. Prototyping/Iterative Approach is a program used to show proof of concept to senior management, to validate system specifications, and to explore solutions to specific usability and design problems. Last but not least, SA is the process of developing system or software to meet certain requirements.
    Even my group had found some of these definitions and concepts to make thing clear in this lesson, my lecturer said for the level of my learning now, I as well as the other students did not have to clarify the processes or the method for using of these Systems because it is totally complex for me to understand. Moreover, he said that being in this levels and understanding the classifications of Methodology is adequate for me to analyze.

Week 7

     Salam everyone.. !
     After mid-term break has been over, this is the seventh week, on 2nd March, which students were struggling to run the project seriously. Anyway, for this week, students tended to be desperate than the other days because  there was a mid-term test of ICT of this second trimester. About this test, actually, it was a bit tough for students to understand but it was understandable for me to do it also. The test was about from lesson in Week 1 to Week 5 which totally were about data and information, Information System, and the other useful types of system network being used in the particular department. I could realize that I was able to catch up the lessons, understand the concepts, as well as do that test accordingly. Specifically, the determination of the test was to remind the things which have been learned since the first week of the trimester. Until now, the outcomes of my ICT learning is fully satisfied when doing the test even I'm not perfect or the best one about ICT; however, I'm glad to accept and acknowledge my ability on that.
    
     Besides the most significant test for the life of learning ICT, this week was also the week of submission Group Project. As I have mentioned from the previous week, this project consisted of 3 students getting involved. The aim of this assignment was to report the Background, Systems, and Staffs who are in charge of IT Department in a specific company, being as a manager of that company. A long with the progress, we have been doing research as well as choose Hotel as a particular company. Moreover, we have identified the Systems being used in our Hotel such as Hardware, Software, Communication Technology, Staffs, and the Costs of the IT Infrastructure as well. Our work was successful, and, to me, it was such an amazing activity which let me coherently recognize that this project was very crucial for me to identified the systems being used in the company so that in the future, I'll be strongly able to organize the IT Systems in my business company.
