Week 1

A bit of what we're learning in COM 125 is not very new to me, as i've learnt it in poly.
It was a long time ago, however, and it's nice to have a refresher and to hear those old, familiar terms again like intranet and DNS and Ring networks, etc.

I found the first two lessons interesting and attention-grabbing which is very impressive because i know that topics such as this can be very difficult to teach to a class especially when they do not major in a computing-related science.

it was good integrating a mini-quiz into the lesson because if there's one thing singaporean students love, its a bit of competition and that little quiz woke us up and taught us a few interesting things as well!

I look forward to learning about the elements of the internet which have sprouted up since i was last in school and do not know about yet. RSS is one particular topic that i would really like to find out more about, as i feel it is very relevant to my daily life and can improve greatly how i access information on the internet. or rather, how information accesses me. :)

till next week,

Deva
