Discussion 2 (Exercise) - Applying Rich Text in Nicenet

Hey, guys! have you ever told that, in nicenet, we couldn't input rich texts? Did it become obstacles when you want to upload somethings? If so, don’t be sad, fellows. Here I have a solution that I got from CALL class: applying rich text in Nicenet!

Well, we can simply use online HTML editor.

With the help of this stuff, we are able to convert the normal text into the rich text. Hmmm... How come? Here I tell you, guys:

Firstly, type the words or everything you want to post as you usually do in HTML Editor. Then, feel free to edit the text by using the features and icons provided there. For instance, you can bold, italic, and underline our texts. Moreover, we can also color our texts or input the http(s). We even can put some pictures, you know?

Once you finish editing, click the source icon at the upper side. Don’t panic! Yup, just calm down when you find that the screen is changed and full of 'alien' symbols. In fact, that is the output, instead of the original text before. We just need to copy it all and paste to wherever you want to post. After you post, those 'alien' symbols will automatically change into your rich texts, just as appropriate as you wish. Very simple and easy, isn’t it?

That’s a little information from me. I hope it can be useful for you. See you and have a good day!

Discussion 1 (Task 1) - Exploring Nicenet

Hey, guys! How's life? All is well, right?

If last week we have seen a glace of Nicenet, this time we dig it deeper!

We are familiarizing with the interface or layout of NICENET.org. We also get to know all features within by trying every navigation link to find the function and way to use it. Then we should find any similar online class services.

Not only familiarizing ourself with Nicenet, we have also got to post the answers to some questions asked by Mr. Rahmat. The explanation is as follows:

Opinions on the pros (favorable) and cons (unfavorable) of using Nicenet.org

Pros (favorable) of using Nicenet:

We can do conferencing as the teacher posts a topic and we discuss it together.

We can post a topic and discuss it with the whole class members.

We can see others' posts and give comments or suggestions as well.

We can make our own class.

We can do personal messaging by sending private mail for certain person.

We can even join more than one class with one account but different class key.

Cons (unfavorable) of using Nicenet:

We can't do chatting with other students.

We can't directly upload videos, photos, or audio files.

We can't delete or remove messages that have been posted.

We can't use Nicenet as a market place.

We can't change the template or design of Nicenet.

Steps to create a class

Firstly, create an account in Nicenet.

Then login to your account.

Next, Choose "Create” under the Classes menu on the left side.

Then name your new class.

After receiving a class key, click “Finish Class Creation”.

Finally, Click “OK”.

Suggestions for any other free service providing online classroom discussion better than NICENET.org

There are several online classrooms better than nicenet, such as: Edmodo, Moodle, Collaborize Classroom, Coursesites, Kelase, Eliademy, and many others. These online classrooms seem to provide extra features that Nicenet doesn’t have. They allow us to directly upload multimedia files, share links, and make interactive video.

However, to access the classrooms might be not as simple as to Nicenet. Nicenet it is easier to access despite with low-bandwidth and easier to operate as well.

Well, that's all for now, guys. Keep waiting for my update! Thanks.

HTML Code in Nicenet (WYSIWYG editors)

Yuhuuu! Meet me again!

At first, I thought that nicenet.org, beside being very handy for online beginner learners, is not able to upload graphics, images, videos, and format font size, color, and even insert links. However, in this week’s practice, we finally know that nicenet can do those all.

Nicenet.org allows its users to use html codes for the things I mention above. It works together with WYSIWYG editors.

If you open the page, you can see a brief description about it:

“This online HTML editor is provided as a FREE resource to anyone needing to use HTML code for your shopping cart product descriptions, email newsletter, blog or other areas of your website? Use our free WYSIWYG editor to get the HTML code you need. Just enter and format your content as desired below using the tools provided. When you are done, click the 'Source' button and it will display your HTML code. Copy and paste the code to your website. WYSIWYG editors are HTML editors that provide an editing interface which resembles how the page will be displayed in a web browser. Because using a WYSIWYG editor does not require any HTML knowledge, they are easier for the average computer user to get started with.”

This is what I tried in my nicenet conferencing topic:

No more flat or boring text in our nicenet conferencing page!

Familiarizing with Nicenet

Aloha!

This time, I would like to share the first online classroom assistant that I use in my LabCom class. It is nicenet.org. Even though this is my first time, I do not find any difficulties in managing it. I'm amazed to find that this online class is very easy to be used.

Here, to get familiarized with nicenet, I want to provide the pros and cons of nicenet, what is allowed and disallowed, how to delete a class member, another free service providing online classroom discussion except nicenet, and how to create a class in nicenet.

Here we go:

*What we can and cannot do in nicenet. What we can do in nicenet: 1. We can create online classes by our own. 2. We can start the discussion by posting conferencing messages to our members in the class and replying them. 3. We can send personal messages to the members. What we cannot do in nicenet: 1. We cannot join the class unless the class administrator give us the class key. 2. We cannot upload images directly in the conferencing message unless we attach it in a website editor which will link and direct the images to our messages. 3. We cannot view our class members' profile. *What are allowed and disallowed in nicenet. What is allowed in nicenet: 1. Nicenet allows the users to create one username for many different classes. What is not allowed in nicenet: 1. Nicenet does not allow the users to sign in the class without password and username. *How to delete class member. 1. Click class administration on left side in classes feature. 2. Choose the class that you want to administer. 3. Then, choose the member that you want delete. 4. Finished. *Another free service providing online classroom discussion. I personally think that COURSERA.org is very beneficial for students around the world to study at home. There is massive amount of renowned universities in the world which have partnership with this online learning facility, such as Columbia University, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Nanyang Technological University Singapore, National Taiwan University, Princeton University, The University of British Columbia, Yale University and many more. COURSERA.org provides many classes in different subjects. The class system is most likely the same as offline class in a university. There are discussions, lectures, conferences, assignments, even examinations. Besides, in COURSERA.org, we can choose as many as courses that we want to study. At the end of the class, we will be given a Statement of Accomplishment certificate, which we can use for many occasions (applying for a job, etc). Access to COURSERA : https://www.coursera.org/ *How to create a class in NICENET.org. If you already have a nicenet account, then please follow this: 1. Move your cursor to the left part of the page and you will find 'Classes' menu under 'Personal Messages' menu. Click 'Create'. 2. Write the class name that you want to create. 3. Click 'Create New Class'. 4. You will be given a new class key for your new class. Save it. 5. Share your class key to your students to be the members of your class. 6. Click "Finish Class Creation'.
