Three ways of using twitter in our daily life

Twitter is a micro-blogging portal which useful in academic life.



Now,s a day's people don't have time to read long text, they prefer to capture small and interesting messages and using Twitter in education with student collaboration.so you can share the important link with other classmates or helping them in their reachers programme.



Twitter can also use in changes of programme. If there is any changing in the schedule so they can inform to others. The student also needs instant notification and can share with fellow notification.


Reachers tools for students. all student can easily find high authority reachers material using Twitter in education. All they need relevant keyword and they will receive a list of websites and blogs. You can also search specific phrases, key figures discussion topic, and discussion forum.

A visit to Macquarie University

My personal reflection about EA P group Macaquarie  University Discovery day.
 

Today i took part in presentation in an EAP group discovery day at Macaquarie University on October 19 , 2017 given by two students .


The presentation has five important things 1:entry pathway 2:facilities 3: faculties 4: extracurricular activities 5: personal stories that were very useful as students.


On discovery day, i collected some information about non applicant programme and scholarship and more information on special pathway about undergraduates and postgraduates entry requirements.


The university also accept EA P  certificate 4 as an equivalent to 6.5 and welcome new comers in graduate programme.


To sum up, the information i got today was very useful and knowledgeable  and will be very useful in my future decision.

Personal Reflection on Usefulness of Diigo in Academic Study

Personal Reflection on Usefulness of Diigo in Academic Study

This is my personal reflection on the usefulness of diigo bookmarking in academic

study.

As a student of EAP class, I realised the usage of diigo is much more significant for me. For instance, it functions as a mobile library where I could save enormous links of useful information resources, so that I could have access to them from wherever I would be in future. On the other hand, if I properly classified all the links by naming, titling and tagging them using appropriate keywords, I could readily get to the relevant information resources which I need by using key words. Therefore, I would be able to save a lot of time in my assessment tasks, or activities such as doing research or gathering information that I have to. Furthermore, it is a tool which could manipulate my group study activities out of class. Also, it could be a media to facilitate distant learning communications between teachers and students because teachers might correct inconsistencies in my writing task, and could give feedback so that I could improve my skill in future.

In essence, I am pretty much optimistic that the use of diigo bookmarking would be a means of improving my outcome of this course; also, it is going to be a timesaving tool by which I could successfully manage the tasks of my study in future.

Personal Reflection on How to save GMail Account

Assessment 3 - Task 3

Today, I learnt a useful technique of how to secure my Gmail account. I came to know that I can secure my Gmail account by two simple and reliable ways. It uses a verification method which uses either phone or email verification to protect Gmail accounts from hackers, third parties and illegal data collectors. In case an unauthorized attempt is made to access someone’s account, Google sends a notification to either a registered phone or email address to confirm if it is a legitimate attempt. Google also sends associated information like location of the connection from where unauthorised attempt was made as well as asks permission to allow or deny the access of email account.

The second thing I learnt was about the cloud storage or online storage. It is a good alternative for USB stick and memory card. This online storage is Google Drive. I learnt how to share, upload and download any kind of file in this virtual storage. The google drive has couple of useful options such as sending a document form the google drive to anyone’s email address, downloading a document straight into the Google drive and so on.

The third thing of my learning was about the Google language and date format settings on my google account.

I also learnt how to put the file pathway into the footer section of the document.  I practised how to copy a path of a file from file explorer to the footer of the document.

The last thing I learnt was to use blind copy option (BCC) in emails. This method demonstrates a secure way of sending an email to a group of recipients without the knowledge of the actual recipient.

Reflection on how learning these skills will change my behaviour?

The above mentioned skills are very important for me to understand built-in security features of Gmail account. It also gives me insight of the importance of entering relevant information of mobile phone and email account in personal profile settings of the account.

Similarly, other associated email options of Google language and date format settings, BCC options as well as creating header and footer are very important for future communication and correspondence.  

What action have you taken or will take in the future?  

As a result of my learning, I have updated my account settings of Gmail account with my mobile number and alternate email address for recovery options.

I have also activated my Google Drive and have started creating folders and saving documents in respective folders.

I have also practised sending emails enabling bcc options as senders list.
