May 2020 Semester Reflection #3 Week 7

The topic in Week 7 is Blockchain. I created presentation slides using Canva which is not too bad. The lesson plan is as follows:

1. Recap on big data and IoT. - 30 minutes was spent there. I thought it was bit too long. Recap should not be that long.
2. I began the lecture on Blockchain. I got three sub topics to cover. The first sub topic is an overview of blockchain. Definition basically. The second sub topic was How blockchain works. I got three diagrams on how blockchain works. The last sub topic is about the application of blockchain. Never got the chance to cover this. Had a couple of activities with the student. I guess that takes time too. So, I got to cover 2 out of 3 topics. 
3. Discuss on Test 1 and Assignment 1

The average score for Test 1 is 70 which is not too bad I think. Most students have problems with system architecture question but I am confident that they could understand better. 

Next week (Week 8), I am going to finish off Blockchain and talk a little bit about Cloud computing. Cover e-commerce and also ERP systems.
