Hi! It's already the lat day of Semester 4. The only thing left is the FINAL EXAMINATION!!!
*gosh, so nervous*
Before we forget everything that we learned in MICROBIAL ECOLOGY subject, she asked us to do a reflective journal on the outcome that we get from lesson in class and our project, MICROBES and US. So, here it is...
1. Learning Outcomes
My Answer:
- To define the PRINCIPLE OF ECOLOGY
- To identify the wide range of MICROBIAL GROUPS
- To explain the basic concept of MICROBIAL NUTRITION AND METABOLISM
- To describe the factors affecting MICROBIAL DISTRIBUTION
- To explain the major types of organisms in SOIL and their function
- To explain the major types of organisms in AQUATIC and their function
- To explain the major types of organisms in ATMOSPHERE and their function
- To explain the major types of organisms in FOOD and their function
- To describe the microorganism involve in WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT
- To define RECALCITRAN MOLECULES and the microorganism involve in bioremediation

2. What you have learned?
My Answer: I have learned so many things in this subject. First and foremost, I learned that every habitat or ecology has different microorganism that lived there. It depends on many factors such as the nutrients, temperature, oxygen concentration, pH and so on. Besides, the microbes in a specific habitat have interactions with each other to provide a few things needed in order for them to grow. I also learned the types of microorganisms present in four habitat which are soil, aquatic, atmosphere and food as well as their application. Not just that, I learned about the microbes used in waste water treatment and bioremediation for recalcitran molecules. This has made me more understand about how important microbes in our life.

3. Elaborate the experience in doing the Microbes and Us project.
My Answer: In this project, we have to do a 15 minutes documentary video, 1 minute montage video (for augmented reality purpose), an infographic as well as a journal. The topic that my group (GROUP 1) has chose is RUMEN MICROBIAL ECOLOGY. We did't have much difficulties except to find time to do the project together as many of the group members are busy with other works. We did at least a project per semester, but in this semester we got new experience in writing a journal and interviewing an expert in the topic chosen, where the interview video was included in the documentary video. And it is also slightly different by doing an infographic from doing a poster(we always do this). Overall, I enjoyed my time doing this project with my groupmates.

4. How do you relate Microbial Ecology to other microbiology courses you have covered in the earlier semesters and how you can apply the knowledge in the future?
My Answer: To know and able to understand the microbial ecology is very important. It is because each microorganisms have their own specific factors why they live in such habitat. And to be able to do that, they must have a special characteristic such as some kind of different in their genetic materials or enzyme. All of this can be related to our previous subjects taken in semester one until semester three. For this semester, the other subjects that we took such as Applied Food Microbiology, Bacteriology and Enzymology are quite related to this Microbial Ecology subject where there are some topics that we learned are similar to each other.
All in all, I have learned many new things from this subject and it make me feel even more happy to be a MICROBIOLOGY student!!!
