OVERALL REFLECTION

From the first day of our class, we have been introduced with various knowledge including Computer Assisted Language Learning, Computer Mediated Communication, Corpus Linguistics, Concordancer and many more. We did our reflections after each class to recap on what has been taught by our lecturer. We managed to finish one presentation on lesson plan and the other presentation will be started on 28 April 2015. Our main project, which was producing a blog, was quite challenging as we need to include all the assignments, presentations, reflections in it. However, all the assignments given have been completed with the guidance of our lecturer and the cooperation of our group members. Madam assisted and monitored our blog progression from times to times so that we could improve our blog contents effectively.

Our lecturer also gave a very good explanation for every single topic and she related the discussion to our daily lives in order to enhance our understanding on the topic. For example, she encouraged us to think about the availability and the comprehensiveness of Forensic Linguistics within our society. Without hesitation, we could say that this topic is one of the interesting options to make if we would like to further our Master in the future. We also felt very lucky as we got the chance to listen to madam’s advices during the classes as an extra knowledge and motivation.

Nevertheless, towards the end of finishing our reflection, we were having problem as we did not really know on how to use the concordancer. Then, after we have explored various software of concordancer, we came to know which type of concordancer were the easiest and hardest ones to analyze huge amount of data.

Producing our own blog was an interesting experience because as we learned new knowledge, we managed to share it with other people as well. Indeed, spread the knowledge is so vital for the betterment of the society.
