PART 1

I have a father who named his children random names. So guess where I got my name from. Anyhow, my name is Lisa Emir. I like to bake whenever I feel like it or if there is extra time to spend on it. I enjoy cafe hopping with my aunt and watching Korean dramas during my free time. Being 22 years old this year I've decided to be more mature and capable of doing a lot of things for myself and others. Random fact, I drive for about an hour at least, from my house in Puchong to class in Puncak Alam daily and I am trying my best to be early every single day. Nonetheless, I enjoy driving to class despite the morning rush hour because starting the day is always exciting for me.

PART 2

I would not rate myself as illiterate nor savvy in terms of my computer skills, but rather I am doing fine with the most basic skills needed for a person to survive in today's world. In other words, I can always google anything which I find new for me to understand or operate regarding technology and learn from there.

PART 3

I use Microsoft Office Word a lot and sometimes Excel to keep record of few stuffs. So I have those, Windows Movie Maker and many more. I think I know the basic physical parts of the computer.

PART 4

Yes, I have when I was in primary school as my father used to make us siblings learn keyboarding using a CD on how to type without looking at the keyboard.

PART 5

I haven't gone to my practicum yet. But even if I did, well maybe I'd incorporate some depending on how desperate I was going to be.

PART 6

I find it brilliant if the teacher could make the time to incorporate that in class. Besides, the students will be more engaged and interested to learn with computers and technology.

PART 7

I hope I will be able to learn interesting methods to incorporate technology in language teaching. I also hope I will discover new things related to technology and online stuffs.

PART 8

My Academic Exercise's topic is "The Effect of Lecturers' Feedback On Tesl Students' Writing Behavior". I am rather interested to know about the effect of getting some feedback from lecturers and how it can affect the students' actions regarding their own writing. I have yet to be assigned to a supervisor. So far, I don't have a clue yet. But I just hope to see my supervisor and get her or his opinion or view regarding my topic. And if she or he approves, I want to start looking for more references.
