first week at mcrc

first week of convergent journalism at mcrc has been quite fun...iv learnt new things like quarkexpress...the classes so far have been interesting and enlightening...i specially enjoyed the classes by ramesh menon,iram ghurram and the first day of quarkexpress at multimedia lab... the occasionl trips to fx are also fun...the employment of ppts and videos as teaching aids is a respite and helps kill the boredom that otherwise creeps in quite easily between 3 hours long classes... all in all its been a good start...
