Week 12: Aim above the mark!

This week's class was somewhat bitter sweet and it was quite different from the rest. Instead of having our usual 9:00 am to 12 noon session filled with activities and lots of content information, it was more of a bonding session.

For those who did show up to have breakfast together, we had a blast! Thanks to our lecturer of course! After we were finished with our outdoor breakfast party, we proceeded to class. Our first activity was occupying a space in the room facing the wall. Then with the use of two pieces of post its, we were instructed to place each piece as high as we can reach by whatever means possible. This exercise allowed me to think about the way in which I set goals for myself. Often times I will tell myself 'you have the potential to reach very far in life'. Therefore, with that in mind, I have set high goals that I wish to accomplish in the near or distant future and I do believe that I will accomplish them someday. This degree is just the foundation.

After the exercise, it was then time for the presentations about climate change. Each group was very entertaining in their presentations while being informative. We all tried our best in presenting the content in a less traditional manner. Although we had a few shortcomings with regard to the content, I think by the time exams come around we will definitely be prepared to write accurate and detailed information on any aspect of the topic. Our group demonstrated the topic 'IPCC predictions on world climate change' in the form of poetry. I certainly enjoyed it.

As we have come to the end of this course, I will use the skills and knowledge that I developed and acquired to add value to my teaching. Additionally, I am confident that I can better be able to undertake any task or challenge presented to me in the future. We have definitely come a long way and still have further to go. Thus, I will continue to work hard in my efforts to be the best I can be to add value to this society. On that note, I'd like to end with my favourite quote thus far.
