COMPUTER SCIENCE

As matriculation student that choose Module III (Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology and Computer Science) , I highly recommend Computer Science as it have loads of useful knowledge (and programming!). In other words, NO LAB REPORTS FOR THIS SUBJECT!

From my previous post (pictures in visual learners) , I have briefly explained a little bit about Computer Science. Computer science is the scientific and practical approach to computation and its applications.


Computer has become important in industry and recreation. Computer Scientists work with computers to develop software and hardware in almost every industry. Work done by computer scientists can be used to streamline production, increase security and much more!

Learning Process

There are various ways of learning process. There are three main types of learning styles: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Most people learn best through a combination of three types of learning styles, but everybody is different.

Auditory Learners: Hear Auditory Learners would rather listen to things being explained than read about them. Reciting information out loud and having music in the background may be common study method. Other noises may become a distraction resulting in a need for a relatively quiet place.

Visual Learners: See Visual Learners learn best by looking at graphics, watching at demonstration, or reading. For them, it's easy to look at charts and graphs, but they may have difficulty focusing while listening to an explanation.

Kinesthetic Learners: Touch Kinesthetic Learners process information best through a "hands-on" experience. Actually doing an activity can be the easiest way for them to learn. Sitting still while studying may difficult, but writing things down makes it easier to understand.

Study VS Play

People always confuse about how much time should be spent on studying and playing. To be on the right track, we need to balance between studying and playing. Obviously, the more you play, the more you learn. So, even though you may think you are not learning when playing, you are in fact learning something new with every game.

Here are six steps to smarter studying:

1. Pay attention in class.
2. Take good notes.
3. Plan ahead for tests and projects.
4. Break it down. (If you have a bunch of stuff to learn, break it into smaller chunks.)
5. Ask for help if you get stuck.
6. Get a good night's sleep!

“What is education?”

Our answers may provide insights that get to the heart of what matters for 21st century children and adults alike.

We need to balance the goals of formal education with the goals of raising healthy, happy children who grow to become contributing members of families and society. Along with academic skills, the educational journey from kindergarten through college is a time when young people develop many interconnected abilities.
