Feedback

Week 13

This week, we discussed preparation and presentation.

In the beginning class : 

1. I asked to review the meeting video because I came late. Despite coming late, I try my best to keep it up.

2. I listened to the general feedback about following the assessment to do for submitting the assignment and also preparation for presentation.

Specific Feedback : Review the video for submission presentation or further info.

On the powerpoint slide I need to add analysis and evidence especially about primary research, how I got the participant's progress and interview result.

General Feedback : Try to secure the assignment and always submit even if it's late.

Week 14

This week, we had a brief discussion about fixing or making the preparation of the presentation better.

In the beginning class : 

1. Follow instruction to do Reflection Report

2. Try finish all the assessment before the deadline

Specific Feedbacks : Try to make the slide powerpoint less boring. Finish the reflection and try to use the mic properly when about to record the presentation. Make a script to make the presentation more easy.

General Feedback : When it comes to a presentation, try to do your own version and engage, if it's difficult try to make a script for easy memorization.

REFLECTIONS

• Experience
  In my experience, I was nervous  because doing research or writing the whole entire essay info was not something that I am good at it. Even looking at the entire rules or requirements it’s already made me anxious. I tend to overthinking alot or even get enough sleep which leads to bad habit. I sometimes didn’t rest or eat properly because I feel like it was a waste of time to do this project that for me it's difficult. I didn’t stop crying thinking I will fail this module even I already sacrificed alot for passing this. I tend to get discouraged when everything I do was not according to the lecturer wanted but at the same time it was part of learning for me. I can’t denied the fact I already reach this far and I should proud of myself. All the challenges makes me to be better person and good understanding.


• Observation 
  In my observation. As I learn a lot of things, I need to focus on how to be an engaging and mature researcher also handle each circumstances professionally. I remember I have to redo proposal almost 3 times but it’s because that time I was lack of understanding or make a common mistake. But our lecturer was patience to teach me and assist me even we believe each of us busy and have a less time for the private feedback. This module stressing me but I can’t help it but try to cope. Working each part and revised over and over again, I have to never gave up. It is part of study to learn for my future.
  
  
• Finding 
  In my findings. I find a lot of things that helps me for my study in the future. Starting with critical thinking when deciding topic. It has to be connected with my mission what topic i want to learn and make it part of my research. Also in primary research the answers between 3 participants already shown each their perspective are different level how they understand it. It makes my mind opened, I can see the comparison too. It is truly interesting and I enjoy this despite finding the target participants I wanted was difficult. What I learn this fare, patience and professional act was something I need to require more in the future.
