A Week Gone Along

This week started off slow rather than the usual fast-paced life or week I'd have in my life. I'm still much focused on the whole Digital Story side of things. I have my audio and my pictures together but the whole software is giving me a problem to say nonetheless. I am not a huge fan of using this type of software that is not really user-friendly.

I am trying to piece in everything bit by bit, and I hope it does go down quite well. The week has been catching up with me, it's escalated to Thursday already and I have yet to finish this project. I will hopefully get it done by the end of the week.

That's basically been my week thus far except the whole issue with vacation is really one that interests me since we are not really on vacation through out these holidays.

Future of Logistics Management

This session was insightful introduction into the future of logistics. I learnt that the the world of work is shifting. The corporate environment is slowly moving with the times and is increasingly digitizing. The employee is therefore expected to evolve into an employee that is able to: Work anytime, Work anywhere, Work on on any device, Focus on outputs, Create their own ladder, Customize their work, Share information, Develop into a leader, Rely on collaboration technologies, Focus on adaptive learning, and Learn on their own.  However, the lack of digital culture and training is hampering the logistics and transportation industry. More over, companies are concerned about various challenges that are impeding their ability to digitize their operations. Companies are concerned with data security and data privacy, especially with the increasing use of external data. What I also found insightful was the the high financial investments and the lack of digital strategy are other issues...

Digital Story (The Script and the CMap)

Recently, my coordinator assigned tasks to us on Asana (a platform that I plan to reveiw on some other day) to tell a digital story. Well, the brief being that we must tell a story that would leave a lesson to whom so ever comes across it (but the brief was not in those words). The task has different phases and parts to it, so that makes the task easier to deal with and handle. I started off with producing a script for the digital story. The script is just a wording of what the visual story and the narration of the story will be composed of. I loved writing the script, pouring the lessons I have learned thus far into such a script was a good experience. The CMap was kind of tricky hey, having to draw a concept map that captures the whole concept of the digital story was very tricky. It was my first time having to produce a copy of CMap document that would be used for such purposes. I did not struggle at all with the Concept Map as much as I expected to struggle. Currently I am co...
