Measure for Measure! M04

What interesting measuring system you have! Did you enjoy the activity?
What system of measurement did you choose as a group?
Was it hard using the item you've chosen to measure?
What did you learn?
And how will you apply what you've learnt in Technical writing?

today madam Jumani have ask us to choose our own system of measurement...
At first,,,i was wonder what this is about...
After conversation wit other group members, we choose shoes as our system of measurement...
huhu~
I think we choose shoes because it was big and it will be easy for use to measure things wit dat..
erm...
our guess is right...
madam have ask to measure the width and length of the room,each group member's heigth,and even the longest nose in group members...
huhu~
it's very funny when some other group measure things wit matrix card and handphone...
must be hard for them..i guess...
after all,today's activity really thought us about how important it is to have standard measurement..
bcoz witout this standard,everybody seem to have their own measurement and it will be hard for us to buy things..

Alhamdulillah..
measure is very important to us.if not,how we want to buy fish,chicken and anynthing else?
but there is an international measurements to standardised the unit of measurements and the devices to measure.
my group use ATM card to measure and we find that it is quite hard and fun to measure.
but at least,i as personally could redlise that the measurement was so imoprtant in our live and we should appreciate for those who create the measuring devices.but,before that,thanks to Allah.S.W.T becasue give the chance to us ro realise the important of measurements

erm...i enjoy the activity..
my group choose handphone as sistem measurement.
the activity is not so hard but it make long time to measure something that bigger..
what i learn???
emmm..system that we use to measure is not same with other system..
example.handphone not same with a4 paper.saiz handphone small than a4 paper.
erm.like nazreen said,"the standard is very important in daily life"..for your life choose your standard

hallo...
my group was choose pen as a sistem measurement,i think this is good idea because we must use our measurement sistem to measure lenght,height and other thing so if i choose handphone or matric cad like other group it maybe difficult to measure something.this activity was important because we must know the important sistem of measurement.

measurement..ha..ha..
that is the important we need to know about it..
my group decide to choose handphone(h/p) as our system..
that was very different system to the others group and different scalar..
then, went we compare the result...he..he..
it very different...
the moral value is...we need to use the standart measurement..

the measuring system activity were really interesting..students come out with many types of measurement according on the own creativity.. even the sock bieng used as the item to measure things..fortunately they dont really used thier own otherwise i cant imagine what would happened.. We, the dark knight used atm card to take measurement..although our 1st choise was pen - which being taken by piee's group- at last we're all egreed to use the atm card.. to measure all the things asked were not really hard as we used the ruler to make the measurement faster then we devided it with 8.5 cm as 1 atm card = 8.5 cm... above all this activity make us realised the power of standardization.. if all things we do we just follow ouor own desire it'll be difficult to us when make bussiness with others.. and from it also i realised that we have to be specific in what we do when describing things ti others as an engineer...

Ha...Ha...
The activity is quiet entertaining...Before that,all of us just using some instruments like various types of ruler,weight meter,and etc. to measure length,width,thickness,weight...of the objects.But,when we try to use different types of instruments such as shoes, pens and handphone....to measure,we got different results...!!!
From the activity,I realize that
those days our ancients using different instruments to measure objects which is the same but can get various results. And it might cause problems...Fortunately,some of the diligent and intelligent people invent some equipments so that we can measure things.Moreoer,the exchange system...Therefore, we need to appreciate that what the people have had done to change the world and make the world easier...

i'm totally can't imagine if our life today will go on with these measurement system..thank god,inventors had create the correct and measurement what we called a standard ..means everything had follow the rules for make our life easy ryte??nway.that's all from me,,bubui fwenzz..haha

what the,,,,
i lost my comment,,,again
after for a long time not blogging,
let me give a respond on measuring activity
measure without using ruler?
how could it be?
and that's show how creative my group members measured all things around using my SHOES!
its totally not accurate because we need to measure from the smallest to biggest things
from the length of nose to the length of door,,
but i thanked to madam jumani because gave me this kind of experience :)

Although nowadays we have the proper measurements that make our life more easily...but we still have to apply for the old type measurements to help us improve the measurements...That's why today got many mathematics, physics,chemical formula and others...and this make us sometimes feel confuse too...
Therefore, through this game ,i had learnt that to produce an formula and measurements are not that easier...so we should appericiate...
