in a less brutal way than the 'last' nuclear exchange between Red and
Rafe ;-) Sabar guys you both got your points, ....
Have a read and pls comment...
Critique of MQA Computing Program Document
Hm.. Boh, you also losing your kungfu touch, above you commend both
sides, not making known your own stand. Playing it safe by not playing
to the gallery at all :)
Since you ask me to comment in your MQA analysis, so here goes.
1. Why analysed something that is more than 30 years old? The topics
sounded familiar and quite inferior to what i learnt in IDPM, London
(via Goon's Institute KL) in 1981! There i learnt Programming, Data
Structures, Flowcharting, Intermediate Accounts, Communications and
Systems Analysis all in 2 years. I got employed at end of 1st year by
Dataprep in 1982.
2. About teaching ERP in colleges, if they just teach Accounting well,
should be enough. Don't make the kids start cursing you in their facebooks.
3. About programming as a highly paid skill, as compared to Systems A &
Design, the later should be true as A&D precedes form, but the concept
those days is wrong today. What, if any design kids should know today is
encapsulated in OO. That is the present, almost going past. Certainly
not future.
Finally thanks Boh for your thesis, as you finally nailed this into the
coffin. Malaysia's future is dead. It's knowhow menu is Vasco Da Gama's.
Wonder if MDec employs such grads and in what numbers. Rafe, any stats?
