I haven’t really been the kind of person who likes
to dive into books for studying nor for entertainment. Sure, I read some Harry
Potter books and Percy Jackson books but that’s about it. I’m not really
interested in reading a thick book or even a long article. Perhaps the reason
would be my very short attention span. I can only pay attention to reading
material not more than 5 minutes before I start to get bored and probably do
something else. It is why I find it hard to do a study out with friends because
while they seem to be really focused on studying, I on the other hand, am just on
my phone watching videos on YouTube.
Taking
this course, has been kind of an eye-opener for me, that learning isn’t limited
in books and online articles. I have been dependent on other people’s notes
because it’s much more convenient and easier for me. I have also been afraid of
speaking in front of a group of people. This course has helped in many ways
than I was aware of. It made me better understand other people and the things
they say, it made me less afraid of speaking in front of people, and I have
been more involved in writing with more emotion than I ever had.
As
a Computer Science student, it helped me a lot in trying to more critical of IT
related articles I read online. Instead of just imitating source codes that I
find online, I read it and make sure that I understand the implementation very
well before I move on to making my own program.
Communication
isn’t just limited to an oral manner; it is more than just speaking. It is knowing
subtle body languages, facial expressions, emotions, and many more. The thing
that I like the most about this course, it is that I was given the freedom to
write what I want without silly limitations. I might not be fit for formal essays
and letters but I find it really cool to be able to vent out what I have in
mind without any restraint.
