Learning about vocabulary

This week Julia introduced us to this new website called vocabulary.com. This website contains synonyms of words, dictionary, opposite of word meanings and dictionary as well. I was a little excited at first when Julia said that she's going to introduce us a new technique of learning vocabulary which is via internet, this is because as back in Malaysia we would usually learn in from books given by our teacher. Well we had to sign into our swinburne account and open the file called "Week 3" and we commenced our task from there onwards.

Our ultimate task was to set up an account and use our swinburne email as the username, second was to gather a vocabulary list which is one list for the second till the seventh week and the second list which is from the eighth till the thirteenth week. Right after that, we were assigned to watch a video on that website which teaches us how to fully operate the website by using all its key features. The video showed us many quick and easy ways to improve our vocabularies. Vocabulary.com challenge was also taught via the video, besides we learned that each word that exists on the website has a definition and an example sentance.
