Reflection
The
first assignment on planning as group work has provided us an opportunity to
plan and make teaching aids using information and communication technology. It
was a sort of avenue for us to chat online and learn to use Google drive for
planning and saving the document safely and conveniently. However, it was really
very challenging for us to coordinate the work being in different places and
without the proper facilities in place.
Further,
I consider Assignment 2 on using Google forms as a new ray of the sunshine that
has shone upon me. This is because I have collected quite a lot of new and
useful information on ICT that I was ignorant until now. I have learned
how to set questionnaire on nine types of questions which I was unaware in the
past. Go to page based on answer features was found to be amazing.
Amongst all the summary responses that we get at the end was found to really
wonderful and encouraging. I have many more that I have learnt and experienced
which I could not put it down in words. I found it very convenient to use in
future to set any survey questionnaire. I have truly learnt a lot although I
underwent through trials and tribulations until I could come out with the final
ones.
I
really went through so much of hardships and troubles due to multiple reasons
firstly due to my limited knowledge on the field and no one to turn to for
help. In addition to that the recent heavy downpour accompanied by thunder and
lightning in Rangjung has cut off all the power and internet lines and since
then we are experiencing frequent disturbances and interruption both in power
lines and internet lines even to this day.
This very issue has aggravated the problems and made me
crazier.
I
addition, after the completion of my work and having shared to my friends, I had to reset the questions all over again
even after having received some responses since some of the friends have
encountered problems in filling up my questionnaire. Finally, I shared my final
questionnaire to about 15 to 20 friends but received the responses only from
half of them due to one or some other reasons. As the proverbial ‘No gain
without pain’ however, I have gained new experiences and knowledge that has
helped me to grow further professionally and intellectually.
