Career Opportunity Portfolio 15

My mailing list will consist of the following websites:

http://www.jobsdb.com.my/Malaysia/

Short description :

This website advertises all sorts of jobs and no subscription is needed. However, I find that the jobs advertised here are not as many as those in The Star newspaper and internet so I will use both the paper and the online site to look for jobs. I will need help to call up to confirm the interview if selected.

Gallaudet University, USA


Last year, I had the opportunity to meet Julie Fisher, a student from USA. My friends, Mazkuri Ong and Lim Anuar, brought Julie to LUCT and introduced Julie to me. I asked her many questions, e.g. her studies in Gallaudet University, her tutors, interpreters , deaf clubs and the American Sign Language (ASL) classes. It was interesting to know that many of the faculty and stuff members are able to sign. Julie says that she does not face many problems with her studies as there are many good interpreters to help out. Classes are conducted with both hearing and deaf students studying together. This really inspires me. If I were given a chance to continue my studies, I would choose Gallaudet University as I am really impressed with the facilities and the opportunities available for hearing-impaired people like me

Reference:

Design For Art

I was given four themes to choose from:

  • Design for music
  • Design for art
  • Design for Social Awareness
  • Design for Corporate Identitly

I chose ‘Design For Art’. Art could either be visual or performing arts form, especially painting, drawing, sculpture, dance, theatre, architecture and printmaking. My hypothesis is paintings by Malaysian artist are less abstract but more of reality type. In realistic painting, the artist tries to represent person, scenes, things and facts as they are. Abstract artworks are generally non-representational that is artworks where the artist is free to paint the object, image or scene as he seen it.

I want to narrow down my research on canvas and art paper as art Questions would help me with my research are...

The writer argues that paintings by Malaysian artists are less abstract but more reality type paintings. Discussion of this essay will take the form of the following:

  1. Abstract or contemporary, which does it mean?
  2. History of Malaysian paintings.
  3. Malaysian artists: abstract and reality
  4. What are being taught in Art schools?
  5. Conclusion: Malaysian artists prefer to produce reality paintings.

I will do both primary research as well as secondary research..
