~Netiquette is very important. Netiquette makes online communication go smoothly. 

Netiquette helps keep people polite and regulate online communication. 

~So remember, when you send and email, instant ot text message, 

ask yourself, "am i using proper netiquette?" . The more people follow the rules of netiquette, the more people who will observe and learn online etiquette.

assalamualaikum and selamat sejahtera guys.. ;)

It was already week 3 of my computer in education class. I've learnt new thing again in this class.
I need to do a little bit of research about Course Management System and Learning Management System (CMS/LMS). Then I've to explore on goggle doc.

CMS/LMS----->>what's that?? 

CMS/LMS is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of education courses or training programs.
At UKM, we use IFOLIO, SMPWeb to make the learning process easier.

There's a lot of advantages by using C/LMS. 
The learners can go through the material any time they want and as many times as they want. 


Let's move on to google doc.

Google doc is a free, Web-based office suite and data storage service offered by Google within its Google drive service. It allows users to create and edit documents online while collaborating in real-time with other users.
The steps are :

1. Sign in my google account using your gmail account. (docs.google.com)

2. Just click on the icon "CREATE"  in the red box at the left side of your lappy.

3. Choose document and you may start typing anything that you want. It's more and less have the same function like Microsoft Word doc. 

4. In order to save the document, you can download your document as:

    ~PDF doc

    ~Open document format

    ~Rich text format

    ~Plain text, web page 

I had choosed PDF document.

Your report is downloaded to your lappy!

DONE!

It's easy... :)

Next, I uploaded the doc in Yahoo Groups and my dropbox!

You also can share the document with your friends, as many as you want 

by typing their email adress.

That's all for this week.

Thanks for spending your time to read my blog!

bye bye :)

Hi guys..! :)

It's already the second week of Computer in Education class.

For this second week, there is new thing that I've learnt.

DROPBOX!!

I never knew about the dropbox before. 

so, what is dropbox??

Dropbox is a personal cloud storage service that is frequently used for file sharing and collaboration. The dropbox application is available for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux desktop operating system. There are also application for iPhone, iPad, Android and Blackberry devices.

I signed up for an account, as a student, I've choosed free package, and it offers me 2GB of storage. :)

I can share files via dropbox with my friends who've their own account. Files in the dropbox folder can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection. 

I find out that this application is really helpful and easy to be used. If you don't have an account for dropbox, create one and I'm sure you'll fall in love with it. :)

That's all from me.. thanks! :)
