Emmm...I think I've made a number of formal presentations since I've been a PhD student...
I took about one month just to prepare a presentation...this was a situation when I was a few months started my PhD..Why I took so long?...
English....yes....english...
When I was a master student, I was still remembered how I just read from my slides during an international conference in KL. The reason was I couldn't elaborate my research in English....
Now I think I can cut the time of preparation to one week..I think now I've started to explain something in English without much preparation.....still not good..but I can see a progress...cai yo cai yo....
Last week, I gave a presentation for Autole 08..a conference for asian top univeristies in engineering.. A lot of engineering students from UoA entered this conference....biasala....supervisor suruh masuk..kenala masuk..dah dean suruh supervisor suruh student masuk....he..he..
But I think there were no students from UM. UM represents Malaysia as a top Uni in Engineering but I didn't see any of their students...emmmmm
I saw some interesting presentations.....
Some were formal (like me)
Some were interactive ( I want like this)
How this presenter can explain his presentation in an interesting way make me feel teruja...
He was talking about parallel computing which I have background about it. When I went to presentations about computer science make me feel 'rindu'...In UKM, at first I was appointed to be a tutor for comp science deparment and the head of deparment at that time wanted me to pursue my study in computer algorithm....yg dengarnya sgt susah....But lastly I'm a tutor in industrial computing department because my master's thesis was more to quality control...Since then, the faculty make a rule that if a student is a computer science student, she must do a thesis in comp science too..not like me...
So here I am .To fullfill a requirement for an expert in real-time process control for my deparment in UKM, I do a research to help process engineers to utilize past data to detect future abrnormalities in aluminium processing in real time. Hope I can use this technique to other processess too...
But to be a PhD student in engineering give me a new experience...But sometimes it's quite difficult to answer a question like "Is it difficult to be a woman engineer?" How I know because I'm not an engineer..he..he....tak terexplain yg kita nie tahu engineering sikit2 jek...
Now, I'm waiting a response from a process engineer yg mintak2 dilembutkan hatinya utk membantu dari segi data....tolongla saya..tolongla saya.....kalau pikir2 balik..mcm win-win situation..kita tolong kaji data dia, dia cuma bagi data....data yg dah lepas pulak tuh..data yang mereka akan delete pun..jadi...tolongla saya bagi data tuh..kalaula dia paham..emm....
Akhir kata, saya 'present'kan gambar2 terkini Nadhirah yg melaram pakai spek besar (spek yg hayatnyer telah tamat sekarang.)
