Thursday marked the last lesson for this module. Looking back on all that we have accomplished, I didn’t think that I could survive. I remember enrolling in Ms Lim’s class last semester but I dropped it before the first lesson. I am glad that I did not do the same thing this time. Taking this module will definitely remain as one of the wisest decision I made in NUS.
I will like to highlight two main skills which I have developed through this course and they are being aware and working as a team. This course really taught me a lot about being aware about details in written and verbal communications. For example, the importance of concreteness and conciseness in writing. I also realised the importance of having a professional presentation for written communication and I think that it takes awareness to achieve it. This course also highlighted to me the importance of non-verbal communication which I was previously unaware of.
Another skill which I have developed will be working as a team. As a team sport player, I pride myself for my ability to work effectively in a team. But the project work in this module showed me a different side to team work. Through the project, I have learnt to give constructive criticism and take criticism the right way.
There are so many skills and lessons which I have learnt from this module which I cannot fit into this final blog post. Lastly, I will like to thank Ms Lim for making this journey enriching and interesting. To Team Planet, thank you for all the time and effort you have invested this semester! I’m so glad that I got to work with all of you! :) To all my classmates, thank you for making all the classes interesting and lively! I will miss those days when I excitedly (I really mean this) rush to class from my first lecture in the morning.
