Management Information System

Reflective Journal for Management Information System

To be honest, Management Information System (MIS) has been always a headache subject for me. For me, it’s the most challenging subject compare to other subjects that I have studies as I found MIS is difficult and I’m not really a technology-based people, therefore I am rather poor in handling this subject.  I was trying my best to cope up with this subject although it’s really not a cup of tea of mine.
In my learning process, I had been going for every lecture and tutorial class just to ensure that I didn’t miss out any classes that provide me that path way to learn and growth. Every week, I spend one hour to do my tutorial question before I go for class. It trains me to be more knowledgeable and I do enjoy doing it as it became a revision for me weekly.  Besides tutorial, the most interesting in my learning process is having the case study in tutorial class. The case study is the external knowledge for me to learn and I had been acknowledging by the UPS case study far more than I know. A lot of Google search is done while trying to prepared an understandable presentation slide and I found that I was means to be more enthusiasm in learning through this way.  Maybe for others student, they might just copy and paste others work, but I did put in some effort and try my best to do more. About the online quiz, I was quite disappointed by my result as I spent quite an amount of time to study but I still can’t score a high mark on it. However, it does not take me down, I promise myself to do better in the final exam.
Recently, me and my group mates just finish a video assignment and I was quite satisfied on it! During the ideation phase, I held out to see what ideas my teammates would share. Unfortunately, we came out with an idea of implementing supply chain management system into an agricultural industry where we decide to change it due to lacking of information. Immediately, I come out with an advantage idea the way attendance should been taken in lecture hall or classroom nowadays.  The idea was accepted and we work on it immediately. There was a one week holiday where most of us went back to our hometown, sadly to say that the video assignment is hard to proceed. As I was assign to be a leader, I try my best to come out with time for shooting before all of us went for holiday. Unsurprisingly, there are tones of difficulty in editing the video since three of us have no idea in doing a video. We try our best to come out with the final video through all kind of communication tool such as facebook, whatapps and Skype.  Not to deny that allocation of work for this project are never fairly distributed. As we are located in different location, misunderstanding is always there whenever we communicate. The work they submit might not meet my expectation sometime. Lucky enough that we were able to went through the entire obstacle in doing this video assignment and I was proud that I have efficient teammates that always willing to help each others.

In conclusion, MIS is a module that was beneficial and informative to students like us as technology is changing every second in the world. I believed that understanding this module well would benefit me in my future studies and workplace.
