How to contribute better to a discussion forum
By AMEVoice AdministratorWhen considering online learning activities, we all accept that discussion forums would be one of the key areas in developing interactivity as well as collaborative learning. But the ability for a discussion forum to develop collaborative learning would not come intrinsically, but would depend on the students ability to contribute effectively to these forums. Thus, this article hopes to assimilate how students can contribute better to an online discussion forum in order to promote interactivity as well as a high level of collaborative learning.
When contributing to an online forum, you should display several qualities. These will include, scholarliness, encouragement given to others, being truthful as well as being reliable. If you make a post with copied content from another site or from another student, you will fall into the category of plagiarism which would be considered an offence by almost all institutions and be severely dealt with. Thus, making sure that the postings that you make contains your own ideas and writings as well as giving suitable credit to the original authors if in case the content has been extracted from somewhere else is mandatory for better contribution as well as to avoid committing an offence.
Apart from these academic considerations, as an online student, you should login to these forums daily and has to read through as well as comment appropriately for others contributions. Such frequent interaction would not only encourage others to contribute more but it will enhance the learning that you gain from the online environment.
At the same time, you should also give consideration to the spelling and the grammar in your postings. It is vital that you do not make such errors as it can badly reflect on you as well as make the other online students and tutors to be less interested in reading or commenting on your postings as well. Therefore, double checking before posting would be a good idea when participating in an online discussion forum.
Lastly, being specific in what you post as well as avoiding unnecessary content will also of use to improve the quality of a forum and to make you a better contributor in these online forums.
Where do we stand now?
By AMEVoice AdministratorDear All,
In todays world, it is always better to have a professional qualification because you always get an edge over others. But where do we stand now? After 3 years of rigorous classroom & practical training ( in my time it was 3 & 1/2 yrs) you have to run from post to pillars to get an apprenticeship. After completion of that(If you are lucky enough to get one), you are again running from pillars to postbut this time only for a job in any airline.Because we don't have any other place to go. After all these years we get a certificate approved by DGCA,thats all. It is neither a degree, nor a diploma.So our basic qualification remains 10+2(unless someone has done his graduation).

WRITE YOUR BLOG & BE FAMOUS
By AMEVoice AdministratorADD PICTURES, VIDEOS, FULL SCREEN MODE, CHANGE YOUR BLOG BACKGROUND COLOUR & MUCH MORE..... SO START BLOGGING NOW & BE FAMOUS..........
SHARE YOUR STORY, YOUR THOUGHTS,YOUR DREAMS ANYTHING...........

- Choose what type of blog you want to create. Carve out a niche and pick a catchy title that captures the essence of your blog. Remember that a blog, like your clothes, is an extension of you. For most people your blog site may be the only thing they identify you with and you want to be sure that who you are on the inside is reflected in your blog.
- Decide how often you are going to post.Some claim that posting at least once every day is best; Some also say that three quick posts a day are far more effective than one long post every three days. Others claim that when they update a blog every other day they get more readers than when updating two or three entries in a single day. Whatever you do remember that for most bloggers, it's all about reading and many of them would prefer content rather than quantity. Once you get started you'll find that you attract a certain readership, and you may have to adjust how you work your journal to appease and keep the readers you've obtained.
- Get somethings together beforehand because some recommend putting together about a month's worth of material before you tell anyone about your blog. It is recommended that you just start writing and fame will come in time. Feel free to go back and rewrite entries to make everything just the way you want before or after you "go public." You can edit any entry at any time with amevoice.com. Writing a popular blog doesn't happen overnight. The essence of the blog stems from journaling which means the blog is FOR YOU. Work it how you feel most appropriate.
- Tell close friends about your blog and ask them to tell their friends. Often if you use it as another way to network with those people around you, you'll get a better response. If you push it too hard don't be surprised if they ignore your blog because they feel you're fishing for compliments and attention...remember, blogging is about you, and the more attention you put into yourself, the more people are going to notice.
- Look around the Internet for blogs you love. Read and post to them religiously. Leave a note that actually has something to do with their site so that they know you actually took the time for pay attention to the material posted; do not expect anything back in return. Just commenting will cause others to be more likely to visit your and do the same. Often when you make comments to sites a link to your own personal site will already be included with your comment, unless you are posting from one hosting site to the next. If you're at ITW and you read a blog on Myspace then it would be appropriate to include such a link.
- Build a network with other people in the blogosphere - make friends online. This is the best way to get readers and a great way to meet people you would otherwise never know. If you get one thing from blogging, this will be it.
