wiki editing task

I used to think that Wiki is the first place to find that 'instant' information on anything. What's surprising is, me and my colleagues use wiki to find information with regards to work, information, facts, academics, theories and so on. Wiki sometimes give tons of information and it is quite useful as they have nearly all the answers to every questions. But when I tried editing Wiki, I found out there is not much information given.

My colleagues and I are now given the task to edit any wiki page that we think that needs to be edited. I do hope what we do on the Wiki page will be helpful to others who desires that quick access to the information they need.

Academic Exercise-AE

One of the reasons why I want to pursue my Academic exercise is because, I love research. By research, we get to obtain the results of what we are curious about. Have you ever thought about something and ask yourself, why does this happen, and why does that happen? Is this a phenomenon that is occuring to the general public? Or is it just happening to a particular group? By research, we get the insights of what is actually occuring. What's best is, we get hold of the information on our own,with self effort and determination. Basically, to me, research is about answering my own question as well as for those who seek information.


It seems fair to me that in DELAL, whoever loves research gets a chance to do the AE. Although research can be tough and at times, very stressful, but with the proper guidance, it can be done. What I think that is crucial in doing research is proper time management. At first, I do not think it is possible to finish the paperwork by the end of the semester. However, when I was given a timeline by my lecturer, it seems very reasonable to do the research and to finish it on time. I appreciate all my lecturers in DELAL as they are approachable and and extremely helpful. AE is in a way, the one step we need in order to advance to the next level, whether we are doing a masters degree, or PHD. I hope my current AE will be a success and I do wish to continue and do further research in the future.
