Before that, our lecturer, Miss Khairunnisha explained us a little bit about recap from previous class. There were Information, System, Three basic interacting components of system, and CBIS (Computer Base Information System).

It was taught about how we used it in our group project, Information System in Seulawah Hypermarket. It was an easy way how we could use the Bibliography as our references in our group project. This was an example of my Bibliography that I did in my tutorial class in the week eighth.
