#7 : Reflection

This is a short, funny video I came across in YouTube. It shows of a miscommunication between a German coast guard and an American sailor, which may prove to bring about dire consequences.



One way or another, everyone knows that communication is important. However, only during the course of this module did I realize just HOW important it is. It is not just about talking properly. It is also about being aware of the many non-verbal cues, as well as being careful and mindful of your written language.

Throughout this course, I think that my communication skill is being put to test with each assigned task that comes my way. I love the sense of accomplishment I get after having successfully completed each assigned task. I feel and like to believe that I had come out of each test as a better learned individual. This is not a feeling I normally get for most of my other modules (especially for my Mathematics modules).

I have learnt a lot through this module, and the best part is, I get to meet interesting characters along the way. I enjoyed my time spent during lessons, and I had also enjoyed the time spent working with my groupmates, Abdullah and Hui Xin. They are a wonderful bunch of people, and great friends to have and keep. :)

I hope the rest of you have had as much fun as I did during this semester! Thank you for taking the time to read my posts thus far, and for leaving interesting comments. :)
For those graduating this semester, congratulations if you have secured a job, and if not, all the best in your future endeavors!

    Hi Faidah,

    I also feel that Es2007s is one of the few modules that really gives a sense of accomplishment upon completion of the task. Through the various feedbacks obtained and reading other's writing, we learned and made gradual improvements. This module truly help to impart soft skills which are essential in the working society, regardless of the field we enter.

    Regards,
    Michelle
