REFLECTION

In the first semester of year 1 in University Technology Malaysia, I studied the course SECP-1513, Technology & Information Systems in section 1 taught by Dr. Azurah binti A Samah. We needed to study 13 chapters and we did many tasks given by Dr. Azurah in order to have a better understanding on those knowledge taught in the chapters. We have assignments as a group work and all the group members and I are coordinated very well to complete our assignments. Quiz also given by Dr. Azurah based on chapters to help us revising all the contents in the chapters. Fortunately with the help of lecturer and the groupmates as well as my own hard work, I could follow up the syllabus and had a good understanding in the knowledge taught in this course. The most interesting and meaningful part in this course was all the industrial talks, the speakers really inspired me in doing better and improving myself. Throughout this course, I improved my research skills, writing skills, communication skills, time management skills as well as teamwork skills. I need to thank Dr. Azurah for her guiding and also all of my group members for committing so well.
