Week 4 lab 1 (E-learning)

• Does multi-tasking give you a real or false sense of having accomplished something?

I think multi-tasking gives us a false sense of accomplisement. It distracts us from our primary objective then we actually never learn anything. But I have to disagree to myself (wait . . . what?). Multi-tasking is a part of the youth's daily basis; the need to know and find out something as well as accomplishing something. Even, I multitask; reading manga, watching anime, loading videos on youtube, doing assginments.

• Is learning 3D and design different from learning programming, or is all learning the same?Why?

Learning 3D is WAAAAY different from programming. I ,for one ,find it more fun to do 3D. Programming involves memerising codes and re-using it by taking out or putting in functions; some of which I quite do not understand.

•  The article states that “Learning is actually a very complex operation for an individual”. Do you agree with this? Do you feel that you approach your learning in the best way – if yes, how, and if no, how can you change your work style?

Yes and No. Yes, because our minds drift easily from subject to subject when we are learning something that is not to out interest. No, because we waste precious time instead of making good use of it, resulting in last minute work.

• What are your thoughts about the last paragraph in the extract?

Communication is part of life. Multi-tasking may or may not improve our communication skills. It is whether we choose and control our daily work life that can change it.

• Should your lecturers also focus on your work attitude, or just leave you to sink or swim on your own? Why?

 I think (And I cannot believe I am saying this) that lecturers should intervene as it builds up more discipline in our work that our weak drift-ful minds cannot undertake.
