Dissertation Defense
Today I had my dissertation defense with the committee members. It was such a good experience presenting the summary of my own research study and sharing my knowledge and thoughts with others. I really appreciate all the support, guidance, and suggestion from my committee. I know this is not done yet, but it is good to know that I’m one step closer to the finish line.
I went a little over the top with my PowerPoint presentation. My research topic was about chart design, and I would like to make a statement by using the infographics to present the survey results. I was so happy with what I created.
Last night when I was looking for tips to prepare my dissertation defense, I found some interesting comics that made me smile. Take a look at them and let me know what you think!
Irene Made Landfall
Since Hurricane Ike slammed into the Texas coast on Sept. 13, 2008, causing the biggest loss of power in the state’s history, Hurricane Irene is the first hurricane that made landfall in the US. this year. In fact, category-1 Hurricane Irene just made landfall in North Carolina this evening. That’s a lot better than what has been predicted. I mean.. it could have been worse. Now, NYC is threatened as it could be on the Hurricane Irene’s path. Hopefully, it will be weakened or at least stay as category 1 hurricane. Hope everyone stays dry and be safe!

Bread Making
This was my first attempt to make bread without a bread maker machine or even a Kitchen Aid Mixer! I found several recipe wrote in Thai. Some of them said that using the machine was unnecessary. So, I thought I would give it a shot and made pigs in a blanket! A good thing about making bread was lesser ingredients than baking cakes.
Recipe:
Bread flour 150 g
Cake flour 100 g
Dry yeast 1 teaspoon
Sugar 35 g
Salt 1/2 teaspoon
Dry milk 20 g
Warm water 150 g
Egg 1
Butter (unsalt) 35 g
hot dogs
Let’s see how it turned out!
Mix everything together and let it sit for an hour
Only 8-10 min in the oven
Applied butter on them
Umm…umm..umm
Not bad for a newbie like me!
Ingredients for bread making were not a lot, but it took a half day to prepare it. So, maybe it would make the whole process a lot easier if I had a bread maker machine! I should get one huh? LOL!

Data Collection Completed
I’m so grateful that the data collection for my research study is almost done. In fact, the number of participants has been reached my expectation since Friday. Thanks to all participants who took their time and did the study for me. Thanks to all my dear friends who helped me recruit students. I appreciated everything that the people around me have done for me!!
I know that my study is not a typical survey, and most people would take more than 15 min to finish it. But, I feel so lucky that I am able to collect the data so quickly.
I still need to continue collecting data because I set up the deadline on June 15. By that time I should have almost 200 participants. How exciting!!
This weekend I tried to create a Moodle course and put my study to it. It worked out pretty nicely. I could get very detailed results from the participants, and those results are SCORM compliance too. I plan to continue to build a few more courses and add them to my portfolio. I’m also very excited about it! It’s time to brush up my Captivate skills!
