Summing up Final Post

I thank you all for providing me helpful advice and feedback. I will briefly sum up what I feel about your comments.


Hi Justin,

I appreciate your encouragement. I was initially unaware of my stern tone. It was not until I saw myself arguing in the videoed meetings that I realised this flaw. Perhaps that is why the filmed meeting was so effective. Therefore I would like to apologise to anyone who has had a bad experience conversing with me. I will definitely work on this area from now on.

Hi Jing Mei,

I still am nervous when required to speak in class. What really helped me was my team. We planned what questions to ask together and this somewhat gave every team member a responsibility to voice out queries. Perhaps you could adopt the same technique.
I apologise for the confusion here, I actually did reflect some of my performance as a team member. They are incorporated into all 3 of the criteria. However, I agree that it should have slightly more emphasis seeing that effective teamwork is half of the module’s objective.

Hi Lakshmi,

Thank you for the praises. For the blog posts design, I noted that wordiness has got nothing to do with word length. A lot of words well paragraphed with pictures with headers separating them seem even easier on the eyes than a chunk of text that is not as long.
As for my insensitiveness and directness, I note that it is my most serious flaw that requires immediate attention. I will definitely do the necessary corrective actions.

Hi Khoa,

Your feedback is always frank and honest. This really helped me a lot as I found myself working towards improving on the areas you raised.
Nervousness was a key issue from the start of the module. I did not expect many presentations in this computer engineering course and that coincided well with my shyness. However, this module twisted the nature of the course. There is a popular belief that we will graduate as skilled engineers who cannot speak. I think this module is perfect in preventing us from ending up like that.


Once again, thank you all for your constructive feedback. I will certainly put more effort into the issues raised and hopefully have an opportunity in future to show you my improvements.
