Reflection time! Looking back, above all the skills we've learned and acquired from this course, I find myself looking back with a smile. This was one module I didn't really dread coming to school for! Well, maybe just the part where I have to wake up rather early to make it to school at 10am, but that's beside the point. The point is, this was a class where interactions were aplenty, and I found myself removed from my Engineering formulas and theories and what not. In came conversations, discussions, peer teaching, blogging, MIRC(Team Rocks only), presentations, resumes, cover letters and many more.

It was the people that made this module so enjoyable. Thank you Brad for being informative yet entertaining at the same time! And all my classmates who have actively participated in class, I have truly learned a lot from you guys as well.

What have I learned? I learned that I was so inadequate for what is to come for me in the coming year when I graduate, but now I feel much more confident in preparing myself for the inevitable resume and application letter submissions as well as all the intimidating interviews I will have to go through. I will graduate safe in the knowledge that at least I got a head start on my career! :)

Oral Presentation Review

I felt in the end, I was presenting to skeptics. Not that all of you were skeptics, but it was the first time in a presentation I felt like the audience were actually against our ideas to begin with instead of the usual neutral viewpoint, and the 3 of us had to push really hard to "convert" the audience.

And I'm glad we did well. It was a topic close to everybody's heart, and hence everybody had opinions about our presentations and our recommendations. Suffice to say, I didn't quite foresee our Q & A session to pan out the way it did, but I'll take it, cause it means everybody was listening!

Kudos to Joshua and Amos who have been great group mates in this project! I think our presentation was clear yet concise and convincing at the same time! Our delivery was good and our slides were simple and effective! I love how Steve Jobs does his presentations and hopefully I managed to emulate a little bit of him in my presentation!

If I have to identify a flaw, I would say I always talk too fast. I reminded myself before presenting that I should slow down, but ultimately I fired off like a machine gun, but I guess I'm forgiven right? :)
