Academic Development after 5th Week

The new experience that I had achieved reading in Islington College is diverse to my +2 level. I am so happy for being a part of Computing student in this college, which is the first and only one college in Nepal directly affiliated to London University. The arrangement of teaching and learning level of this college runs simultaneously as of London Metropolitan University.

Now, talking about my Academic Development during the period after 5th week is a progressive one and had gained lots of new experience. The studying schedule from 1st - 5th week was running on a smooth manner which was of pretty easy and entertaining too. When we moved to 6th week, we had to give a test for a module named Problem Solving for IT, which was of important for us to demonstrate our observation of knowledge through a writing test covering around 30% marks of overall total marks in this first semester. Everyone was too scared for the test, thinking about how tough a question’s going to be prepared, our skills will be able to solve it or not. Finally, a test was of good one. On the 7th week, we again had a test for a module named Logic covering around 25% marks of overall total marks for this first semester. Finally, a test was of so easy one comparing to Problem Solving for IT, most of us was able to score a grade A among which I was able too. We had a test for a module named Introduction to Programming also but it was not taken from London Metropolitan University, it was from our college to examine a student’s understanding in a programming concept. At last for a module named Study Skills for Computing, we were given a task to prepare a group presentation slides and we presented just as a dummy one only, a final one is to be submitted on the 13th week covering 50% marks of overall total marks for this module in first semester.

All the above description was my academic progress from a time period of 5th - 8th week. During those periods we had to give a test on each week for a three modules. We had a dummy presentation too which was of a group work and got a feedback too from our tutor how to develop a skills on doing a final presentation.

Computing

Computing is the course which helps in developing knowledge and skills in the field of software, hardware and information technologies as well. In the present world, the demand of computer is in a very high range. So now in every part of life, an information technology has been one of the most essential survivals assists for human beings. Without it’s availability a human can’t solve some kind of tough and critical problem which is impossible to solve by human power which may take so long time to solve it but with the help of computer it can be solved it so easily at a faster rate.

Programming concept is fully based on a coding part. It is developed in such a way that a programming language is converted into a machine level language and representing in a graphical environment as well through the help of a generated coding part in the program.

Logic can be compared with the mathematical issues and techniques related to computing mathematical needs. Some logic parts are like set theory, relation, functioned. Which is somewhat similar to as in +2 levels but not so tough one?

Study skills is related to developing a skills and knowledge among a students for being more creative in reflective reading, writing, developing a presentation skills, speaking in a massed. which is important needs in a life of students to step ahead.

Problem Solving is a part to develop an understanding a problem in a depth and finding out its solution in different ways, which acts as developing a mind skills in a students for solving any kind of problem going through depth.

The overall description of some modules is a part of computing to develop knowledge and skills in the field of modern information technology.
