Critical Reflection
For this module, my aim was to improve my presentation skills
in front of a huge crowd and also improve on organising my words when writing a
letter. I am proud to say that I managed to achieve my aim with the tips and
guidance from Prof Brad. I appreciate his patience to guide my classmates and I
equip ourselves with the right set of skills for both communication and writing.
Some of the things that I learned are the ways on how to summarize articles
professionally, use APA style format for my report and to do a presentation
professionally. For a start, I did not even know summarizing an article can be
so important in my engineering career. It is so important as it can be used to
support the product I am working on in my technical report. I am thankful that I
managed to learn the skill in this module and I believe I can utilise the skill
for my Final Year Project and also my career.
During the course module, my classmates and I were given the
opportunity to participate in class such as reading some examples of summary that
were professionally summarize, work in pairs on how to do quoting and citation using
APA style format and presenting an article within a small group. By reading aloud
in class helps me improve on the way I articulate my words so that I can
present my idea clearly during my presentation. I had the opportunity to work and
bond with my classmates by doing group activities in the class which gives me
the confidence to speak and share my ideas with them. Therefore, these
activities help me achieve my aim and gave me a chance to step out of my
comfort zone.
In a nutshell, I am satisfied that I am able to achieve my
aim at the end of the module and I will miss the joy of being in the class. The
learning experience in this module has been engaging and resourceful. I believe
that I have more confidence to do a presentation in front of a huge crowd and organise
my words professionally. Thus, I hope that I can make good use of these skills
for my future career.
