Skype & Videos

Skype

Hmm... what can I say about SKYPE!?

Well...

It is great to use for contacting people who are far away from you. Furthermore, you can use it for group video calls (this is especially recommended for students who needed to do their group works).

So, for my fellow classmates of Foundation Computing, you can add me using my username, "zyraallimagne".

Videos

Videos covers a wide range of genre. Many are aware it is mainly for entertainment, but, there are still a number of people who have not realised that there are available video clips for learning.

For me, whenever I want to learn a new mathematics solving skills in a quick and easy way (or just to refresh my knowledge)...

I recommend "THE KHAN ACADEMY". In addition, they have a "THE KHAN ACADEMY" YouTube channel (which you can subscribe for you to be updated).

Their topics range from maths to science, AND THE BEST THING IS... IT IS FREE FOR EVERYONE!

On the other hand, those who does not have access to internet will not be able to use these kind of learning materials.

These are some of their video clips which I believe will help Foundation Computing students.
