2nd Week in EIR

Today is the 2nd lesson for EIR

I have learnt about all the differnt types of internet websites that we can do our research from and the history of how the internet came about! The internet was created during the world war 2 by the United States of America for war. It was then revolutionised to suit the consumers after the war so as to aid learning.

The different types of internet website that we can get our research from are from Blogs, wikipedia, e-journals, discussion forums and so on. Of course we would have to look through the content of these websites first before using them as reference as not everything on the internet is factual.

We were also given a task of researching on a topic that we have chosen. I chose, the topic on
the implications of legalising euthanisia and assisted suicide.

I chose this topic as I felt that it would widen my general knowledge of all these things as I research on them through the process of learning in the EIR course.

OH! I almost forgot about this, we were given like an imaginary 500 dollars to spend on EIR, for me, i would first buy books about photography as I am quite into them and I would definitely be interested in be better at it.

The books that I would buy would be these few,

The Digital Photography Book, Volume 1-3 (Paperback)

These few books will add up to like 60 dollars.

I will also buy a few games to play on my Playstation 3, like Fifa 10, Uncharted 2, Demon's Soul and Rachet and Clank: A Crack In Time.

FIFA 10

Uncharted 2

Rachet and Clank: A Crack in Time



Demon's Soul

All these games would cost about $70 each. So i would have spent about $280 on these games. So for now, I would have spent about $340 already.

For the rest of the money, I would spend it on treating my family and friends to dinner at a nice restaurant. And of course I would invite you along Miss Faridah!

Hi!

Hi, I am Kenneth!

I am currently taking my diploma in Communications and Media Management, my favourite pastimes are Swimming/Playing the Guitar.

I like to listen to music a lot and my favourite singers/bands are Jason Mraz and Coldplay. Although recently I've been more into Jazz.

I have not been watching a lot of television shows recently but to me the best television show of all time is FRIENDS. It is very entertaining and no matter how many times I watch it, it would still be funny.

The places that I usually chill out at would be Starbucks or Teadot.

I play lots of sports as I love being in the sun. Some of the sports that I do are swimming, lifesaving, soccer and rock climbing.

A tip for rockclimbing would be that you should use your legs' power rather than relying on your arm muscles. Contrary to popular beliefs, rockclimbing is not all about arm power, its mainly leg power!
