https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo My journey throughout the Virtual Microbes learning process :) en-us 2016-11-20 08:08:51 UTC 2025-09-28 05:06:11 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Planets.png ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914092
My name is Sajitha Suresh from University of Malaya. I am third year undergraduate student from the Faculty of Law, UM. I was given a great opportunity of being part of the Virtual Microbe course due to the fact that I am currently taking an external elective subject named Introduction to Microbiology under the Faculty of Sciences here in UM. I have gained many things throughout the entire learning process under Virtual Microbes course.]]> 2016-11-20 08:14:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914092 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914322
The microbe that my team members and I decided to adopt for Virtual Microbes is Loa Loa.]]> 2016-11-20 08:22:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914322 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914401
My team for Virtual Microbes consisted of students from various other universities such as University of Malaya(UM), Universiti Putra Malaysia(UPM), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT) and Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (). Virtual Microbes gave me an opportunity to connect and communicate with these wonderful souls. We got to know more about each through our Zoom conference sessions and also our frequent communication through Whatsapp. It was a great experience for all of us to get to know each other despite being miles apart. Hopefully this friendships last long.]]> 2016-11-20 08:25:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914401 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914602
I am greatly thankful to my team members for constantly guiding me with my continuous doubts and curiosities. i definitely took a longer time to adapt to this entire leaning process because I am not a Science student. Despite being a Science Stream student throughout high school and Matriculation, I initially felt inferior to my group mates who are students majoring in Microbiology. I informed them of my situation, and they have been very supportive of me since then Thus, I am absolutely thankful to have a great team. I couldn't have done this without them.]]> 2016-11-20 08:31:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914602 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914733
Despite being from different universities and constantly having a busy schedule, everyone in my team were committed to getting our work done and gaining the most from this entire learning process. We always found time that was the most suitable for us to have our Zoom discussion sessions and everyone was very cooperative in contributing their time and effort for our final product.]]> 2016-11-20 08:36:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914733 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914888
Virtual Microbe was definitely a great way for me to gain new knowledge that I would have not otherwise had an opportunity to know about being a law student. Giving us the chance to choose our own microbe encouraged me to research about the various kinds of microbe that we co-exist with. I got to know about many new species during our microbe selection process and how these microbe actually function in our surroundings. I would not have had the chance to know about microbes such as Loa Loa if it wasn't for Virtual Microbes.]]> 2016-11-20 08:40:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138914888 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138915079
This entire journey was definitely a great experience throughout. I got to know about many online applications that can make our leaning process so fun such as Padlet, Zoom, Popplet and Cliptomize. If it wasn't for VIrtual Microbes, I would not have not been aware of such technological advances. I've got to know many new and great people along this way too. Most importantly, this has given me the chance to explore the world of sciences that I have definitely greatly missed since I opted to change my course of study to Law.]]> 2016-11-20 08:46:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138915079 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138915270
I can say that these few weeks of being part of Virtual Microbe has indeed been fun and enjoyable. I particularly enjoyed my Zoom discussion sessions with my team mates. It was a great way for us to communicate face-to-face to ensure that our information were well understood. Although we had difficulties due to our low internet connection, we somehow managed to complete our Zoom sessions. We also got to know more about the strength of WiFi in different campuses throughout Malaysia. Using various online applications indeed made this experience fun!]]> 2016-11-20 08:51:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138915270 ssajithasuresh https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138915477
In conclusion, I would like to thank every amazing person who had made this entire learning process for me fruitful and fun. A big thanks to my group leader Esther who was always guiding us and all my other group members. This programme has definitely been a great effort in collaborating students from different universities and backgrounds and also the usage of modern technological applications in learning processes. I would definitely continue using the online applications for my studies in the future. This is indeed a knowledgeable process. I would like to express my hope for more initiatives like this to be done for other courses and other faculties as well as students can definitely gain so much out of this, Thank you.]]> 2016-11-20 08:57:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ssajithasuresh/98bquduohbbo/wish/138915477
