WEEK 1: MPT1203

Today is the first day of Technology and Media Design - MPT1203. The lecturers  will be teach this course are Assoc. Prof. Dr.Jamaluddin Hj. Harun and and Dr. Mohd Shafie.

In this class, we had been briefed by Dr. Mohd Shafie B. Rosli  about the courses and syllabus.  This course will be about multimedia either theory, demonstration, and theory of technical application for video and audio, either software or hardware.

In this course, students will be assessed based on assignments, e-Portfolio and Learning Activity, quizzes. 

There are 3 assignments which are assignment 1, media design critique and suggestion, assignment 2, digital video pre-visualization, and assignment 3, animation pragmatism. 

Assignment 1 is 20%, about criticism and suggestion on a design based on topic students had learn. All the lessons about multimedia have to be applied into the critics. Assignment 2 is 10%, and will be a lesson about Digital Video Pre-Visualizations. It will be about planning and sketching a storyboard of video. Maybe it is how we design the preparations before we build up a video. Assignment 3 will be about animation pragmatism which is how to solve the problems of multimedia based on situations. It will give 10% marks.

E-port folio is a journal or reflection of study. It should be written in a blog, and it is not only a writing but a critical thinking of learning reflections.  Learning activity will be about all the task that will be marked based on class activity. Both e-portfolio and learning activity will marks the students 10% marks

Quizzes will be given in weeks of learning. It probably will be given unexpectedly, and will be 10% marks.

The scariest part is the final exam which will be finalize in last semester and will be marked 40% if students get full marks.

So far, it does not seems easy, but i do not think it is impossible to get good marks. Fight!
