Software and its Applications in Education

Software is a set of instructions, data or programs used to operate computers and execute specific tasks. Opposite of hardware,  which describes the physical aspects of a computer, software is a generic term used to refer to applications, scripts  and programs that run on a device. Software can be thought of as the variable part of a computer, and hardware the invariable part. Typically, there are two major classifications of software, namely System Software and Application Software. 1. System Software A system software aids the user and the hardware to function and interact with each other. Basically, it is a software to manage computer hardware behavior so as to provide basic functionalities that are required by the user. In simple words, we can say that system software is an intermediator or a middle layer between the user and the hardware. These computer software sanction a platform or environment for the other software to work in. This is the reason why syst

It can take the form of (1) a  pure online  learning  in which the curriculum and  learning  are implemented online without  face-to-face meeting between the instructor and the students, or (2) a hybrid in which the instructor meets the students half of the time online and half of the time in the classroom, depending on the needs and requirement of the curriculum.  Web-based learning  can be integrated into a curriculum that turns into a full-blown course or as a supplement to traditional courses. There are many Content Types focused on e-learning. Those are totally based on the need analysis and the type of learners. Let us start with the type of contents we are creating while we think of e-learning as an option.

UTM Campus Life : A New Experience

Image
After almost six months of my university life in my own country, I decided to change my course of higher education. After a lot of thinking and research, finally I made up my mind to continue my bachelor degree in Computer Science (Software Engineering) in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). I applied online to the university through an agency and a few days later my offer letter arrived. So then I got busy arranging all my necessary documents, packing up my luggage and opening bank account for transferring my tuition fees. Finally the day arrived when I had to leave my country, family, friends and well-wishers to start a new journey of my life.
