Major Reflection of all

Peace be upon you

The last reflection we have to do, which is the major reflection is about the blog. From the very beginning, Dr. Rozina had asked her Computer Applications students to create a blog. The blog must contain reflections on our weekly topics, graded assignments, our profile pictures and incorporation of one of the philosophies of IIUM.

Through this creation of our blog, (www.fourundergraduatestudents.blogspot.com), we had an opportunity to learn lots of things. Starting from how to create a blog, find a suitable template for our blog, insert all the necessary things in the blog (such as suitable hadith and clock), to incorporate all the things we learned so far into the blog. Alhamdulillah, this blog creation helps us in improving our computer skill and makes us aware there are still so many things in Computer Application we have yet to explore. Through the existence of World Wide Web, we are able to get information easily and put it in our blog when needed.

 Creating a blog is not as easy as one would think. It takes days to find suitable wallpaper as a blog’s background. This blog is a fruit of our hard work. It witnesses our team cooperation, patience and creativity. When a decision regarding the blog is made, it has to get unanimous approval from all the members. If one of them disagrees with, let say, the choice of wallpaper, the wallpaper needs to be changed. It might seem ‘nitty-gritty’ and frivolous but we need to cope with it. It is our responsibility to stick with our works. The successful end result would pay off eventually, and that is the blog itself.

We would like to thank our lecturer, Dr. Rozina for giving us this task of creating a blog. We managed to go creative with our blog and think outside the box for our blog title. The Ruminative Thinkers- it is something that people rarely use. The opportunity of blog creation might be a small step for us to prepare for the outside world – the real world. Who knows, when we step into the working world, we might need this computer skill in doing our job. In this globalization era, knowing the computer skills will come in handy one day.

In a nutshell, everything that we have learned so far is beneficial to us and others. When it comes to knowledge, it is best if we spread it to others. Hence, the creation of our blog. Hopefully, as much as this blog is beneficial to us, it will be beneficial too for those who come across our blog one day.

From all the assignments and tasks given, we as a group have difficulties at first because of our schedules are not the same so it is hard for us to find the right time to complete the assignments. Thank God for the existence of CMC which allows us to communicate via email, whatsapp and etc. to ease the journey of completing the assignments. Thanks to Dr Rozina because from now on we as a group appreciate the importance of cooperation as a team.
