3MT Presentation



Hello!

                           Today, we did a presentation on our adopted microbe.The concept of the presentation was as if we did a 3-minute-thesis.It was divided into 2 sessions which is in Thursday and Friday. I did on Thursday which is today. It was very nerve-wrecking. Even before the presentation, I could feel my heart beating fast non-stop.

                          I did my presentation on my adopted microbe which is the Halobacterium Salinarum.
The presentation went well despite my super nervousness.


                   From the presentations, I gained a lot of new knowledge on the various type of microbes.For example, Helicobacter Pylori It was a good experience  and I believe that everyone gain something. Now with this,marks the end of my 2nd semester. This is our last class of Microbiology.

                  Overall, I have learned a lot during classes.I learned new microbes that I didn't know before beside E.coli. I learned about the metabolism and how individual microbe grow. I also learned the diseases that could be caused by some microbes. I learned about virus ad prions. Other than that, I learned about autoimmune diseases and hypersensitivity. It was great to learn  new things and I'm glad that I took Microbiology classes this semester.

Adopt A Microbe



           Hello!

                    This semester, we were told to search of a species of microbe for our Adopt A Microbe
project. Each and everyon one of us have to find out about the microbe that we,individually selected and make a scrapbook on the information that we have gathered.I chose to search about an archeon which is Halobacterium Salinarum.This is because it was interesting how this microbe turned the lake pink-coloured.




                  The scrapbook has to be a online scrapbook whether in Cliptomize, Powtoon or other online applications. When I obtained an information, usually I would copy and paste it in Microsoft Office.Then I would reread it again and organize the points according to its categories.

                  I used to want to make the scrapbook in Powtoon since it is interesting.However, it was quite hard and so I gave up using it. Instead, I use Cliptomize to make my online scrapbook. It was very easy to use. Now, I have finished My Scrapbook. This have given me a lot of new knowledge and experience. It was very fun.
