Its a Tuesday, and its also the supposed day of FYP crit, and therefore due to insufficient sleep I feel very drowsy now. Nothing was done much today, only that it took a lot of time. Because I had been a very good and hardworking boy, I finished Practical 3 last week, and all I had to do today is collate the sites and compile them and use the method of APA citations. I have been using APA citations for most of the modules, so this one is much of a refresher. Only that this one I managed to figure out to cite from forums and blogs. They are very useful and act as a reference list which can be accessed anytime.
In APA Citation, it mainly contains the writer's name, the title of the article, date retireved for some, and the source. It helps prevent copyright infringements.
Also today we have to participate in a forum. I am using the forum, Topix, under the discussion category of HIV/AIDs. To my surprise the forum has a lot of topics and discussions regarding HIV/AIDs. Some of which are asking for help, some of which are writing about what the government is doing, and some of which are about guidelines to help those who have quiry with HIV/AIDs.
The forum members reply at the posts and try their best to either help or state their point of view. The forum, however, do not have much discussions regarding impact of HIV/AIDs on teenagers, but have alot of discussion topics regarding that on countries such as Africa and also on adults. I felt nervous about participating in a forum at first, but soon it felt comfortable as I realised that everyone here are strangers who are helping other strangers. The forum is indeed useful to a certain extend, as possibly there are alot of discussion topics around and not everyone knows of the discussion topic posted.
