For a couple of weeks now, the course seems to be highly experimental, with the ‘unique’ lectures that want our feedback, the reading materials, and also tutorials. It seems to be an interesting and fun experience.

When lecturers and tutors are welcoming feedback regarding their lectures, as a student, I find it is good to feel like lecturers put a lot of effort into making students feel comfortable with the lesson.

The reading material, on the other hand, has got me wondering. “How does this relate to web media or networked media?”. I thought we would be studying about how to design a webpage and all that but the readings seem to be out of context to what I thought networked media is about. However, it seems that most of these readings seem to open our minds, or to generate a different mindset, so to speak, about the way we think. I find this highly interesting, as it seems to inspire me, as compared to other courses which have rather dry readings. It feels as though these readings are selected for us to broaden our minds before actually proceeding to fill it with information.

Very interested to see how this course pans out.
