Hello everyone!
I'm back after 2 weeks of hiatus from my last entry for my blog. I'm just following the suggested dates that were provided my lecturer. If I remember correctly, this is my fifth out of eight total blog posts.
On my previous post, I highlighted my struggles in consistently reminding Hakimi to try out iLearnAce. I checked his account progress and he seldom used it since a few weeks ago. You saw in my previous entry how I tried my best to coerce or persuade him to use iLearnAce, even by just doing one Objective Practice.
Sadly, as of this entry post, it was to no avail. He didn't do any further exercises inside iLearnAce ever since my last conversation with.
I'm honestly at a dead end and out of ideas when it comes to persuading him further on actively using, or at the very least, use iLearnAce. I even resorted to asking my teammates' advices such as Afifah and Ajwad on what my next course of action should be. Even they had problems of lack of response and inactivity from both their stepbrothers/sisters and their parents.
That was when it occurred to me; that I haven't tried to contact Hakimi's dad for a long time.
So a big part of this rather short blog update is just me contacting his dad and voicing my concerns about Hakimi to him this time around.
The photo above is a snippet of my short conversation with Hakimi's dad. I apologised to him for my lack of contact with him lately due to my hectic schedule, with college projects and all (every single project was rushed to be completed before Ramadan arrives). I told him how despite being busy, I still managed to keep in touch actively Hakimi, despite only getting few responses from. Then, I began voicing my concerns on how Hakimi started becoming less active in using iLearnAce, and how my efforts to persuade him was to no avail. I crafted my words carefully so that I didn't sound like I'm putting too much blame on Hakimi. I was rather afraid because I sort of 'complained' to his dad that Hakimi wasn't doing much progress in iLearnAce his dad would get so mad and reprimand him for it, which is certainly not my intention.
Lastly, I told his dad on how his account was fully sponsored by our sponsors until he's going to sit for his UPSR exam this September, hence it would be a waste if he didn't utilise the app fully to his advantage.
To my surprise, his dad replied almost immediately after I sent my messages to him. He told me that Hakimi was feeling a bit unwell and he's quite busy with his school work. I expected the latter but not the former. Hakimi didn't tell me anything that he's feeling under the weather, to my sadness. His dad reassured me that he'll try his best to encourage Hakimi to use iLearnAce.
Now that I'm done informing his dad about Hakimi's latest updates, I again tried my best to message Hakimi and ask him about his iLearnAce progress.
I told him that if he's free during the weekend, he can try and explore iLearnAce a bit. It was the nicest way that I could think of in trying to persuade him. Then, I told him how I've contacted his dad to inform about his progress and how his dad informed me of him being sick. I reminded him that he can just always be honest to me if he's not feeling well so that I don't burden him too much. His responses were the same, just an 'okay'. That's better then a bluetick, I thought to myself.

And that's all I guess for this week's entry. Maybe sometime during Ramadan, Afifah and I plan to visit our respective stepbrothers as a last form of gesture before we're done with our Social Engagement course. I'll update you guys later!
