WEEK 3 - BLENDED LEARNING (i-Learn)

       Hello and good day! It's another Friday but this week I won't post any fieldwork activities. The reason? It is because the haze in our campus are in unhealthy status that prevent us in doing outdoor activities. But this week I will be sharing about our task given in UiTM i-Learn which are called The Blended Learning.

        Firstly, I'll inform you guys first that this week post will be short as there are not many to share about since Blended Learning are just an assignment given by lecturers online in the UiTM student i-Learn. Without further ado, let's get into it!

      To get started, our assignment that were given by our lecturer was tittle "Identification of Crop Plants", which is the same topic as week 1. If any of you did read my post of week 1, you guys won't have trouble in understanding about what this is regarding to. Our assignment was to answer a question which was to find what does it means by crop plants. We also need to list all the plants that we have in the field while stating which one of them is a crop plants. In my previous post of week 1, the plants that we have in our field are such as following :-
  a) Frangipani (Plumeria Obtusa)
  b) Mango Tree (Mangifera indica)
  c) Jack Fruit (Chempedak) (Artocarpus integer)
  d) Jackfruit (Nangka) (Artocarpus heterophyllus)
  e) Black Pepper (Piper nigrum)
  f) Fragrant Lemongrass (Combopogon)
  g) Rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum)
  h) Palm Oil (Elaeis guineensis)
  i) Soursop (Annona muricata)
  j) Durian (Durio)
  k) Kasturi Lime (Citrus madurensis)
  l) Coffee (Coffea)
 m) Rubber Tree (Hevea brasiliensis)

       Those above are the plants that we have in our field and based from what I have learn about the crop plants which is plants that are grown by humans for food and other resources. In this section, we will consider four cereal crop is a grass-like plant that is grown for its seeds, all of above except the Frangipani plant are the crop plants. With that being said, I hope this short adventure of mine will be useful to others and I'll ended my post for this week with a hope that you guys have a very good day.
