Motivation Quotation......

Aku meminta kepada Tuhan setangkai bunga, segar, Ia beri kaktus berduri. Aku minta kupu-kupu diberinya-Nya ulat berbulu. Aku sedih dan kecewa. Namun kemudian, kaktus itu berbunga indah sekali dan ulat itupun menjadi kupu-kupu yang sangat cantik. Itulah jalan Tuhan, indah pada masaNYA! Tuhan tidak memberi apa yang kita harapkan. Tapi Dia memberi apa yang kita perlukan. Kadang kala kita sedih, kecewa dan terluka. Tapi jauh di atas segalanya Dia sedang mengatur yang terbaik dalam kehidupan kita.............................................

English Grammar for Academic Studies

WHEN YOU KNOW YOU'RE NEED SOMETHING FIND ON YOUR OWN...
definitely I got what I'm searching for.....

I attended the clasess for 3 times start 23rd April,30th April and end up 7th May 2008

Thaught by Mrs Louise Matthew-very motherly and firm teacher.....

For every session almost 2 hour class; I learned how to edit proofreading work, then how to do nominalisation articles-its not easy job.....for 2 classes @ 2 weeks

The most important thing is Subject-Verb- Object-Adverbials.
Basically to make sentences we must put subject plus agreement
One more thing adjourns or connector words-must know precisely for writings....

Actually mostly what I learned for this class, I've been learned already during my preparation to take IELTS>>>but I forgot already....but english is languange..so you have to practices everyday.....
practices makes perfect....

Being Effective Researcher means being as effective worker and effective scholar

To be effective worker must have FIVE features which are:
-ROBUST FILING SYSTEM
-DYNAMIC PROJECT PLAN
-DOCUMENTING SUPERVISORY MEETINGS
-WORK/LIFE PLANING
-CHOOSING WHAT NOT TO DO THE THINGS THAT WE SHOULDN'T DO!!!!


To be effective scholar must have FIVE features too which are:
-INDEXED ' IDEAS' NOTEBOOK
-TANGENIAL READING)e.g blogs,fotopages etc
-ACTIVITY LOG
-EFFECTIVE ACADEMIC NETWORKING besides attend conferences. online forum or blogs also can be the tools
-TRUSTED SOUNDING BOARDS
