MY FIRST WEEK IN INTRIC

In our first day of our INTRICT class all were anxious about what to expect in class. All began with introductions and then sending sms business cards to our teacher. Our syllabus was elaborated so that we would have the ability to study in advance as preparation to our latter meetings. It's interesting how our teacher gave us a clear introduction to our course and his interesting use of technology to have his copy of our attendance as well.

The second day our teacher introduced to us the power of Google's application starting from using it's high capacity mail to its other features. I learned about maximizing the use of this certain application which I haven't thought of before this meeting. I have no idea that a search engine could send you an alarm via sms. Ialso learned about google's notebook application which serve as an online bookmarking system. With it's use one can go to his/ hers favorite site anytime and anywhere. I also learned to appreciate the technology of sending invitations via the internet complete with a map to instruct the person where the certain event is. And the last google application shown for the day is the google documents which allo the user including a partner to work on documents on the exact same time. This first week I learned a lot and now I am excited what I could expect in the 2nd week of our INTRICT class.
