SARANYA A/P S.KUMARESAN, A174349, 14/08/2022

1. Were the objectives of the project fulfilled?

Obviously yes! This project made me to unlock a new skill in life which is embroidery. From an amateur to a bearable embroiderer, I am kind of proud of who I have become. This project gave me a purpose where I learnt the importance of patience. I got throughout this process and now I can see it’s bearing sweet fruits only because of my patience and never give up attitude. Apart from that, embroidery has been a great activity to fill my free time otherwise I would have spent my semester break recklessly.

2. What have you enjoyed or liked the most about the project?

I liked the part where embroidery taught me patience and I'm kind of a more patient person now and able to control my emotions. Apart from that, I had a very talented and kind instructor who guided me for four weeks although I had the mindset of quitting the course a few times because I had a tough time coping with it. Her motivation and inspiring words made me to continue and I'm very fortunate to have met such a kind hearted person via this platform.

3. What have you found challenging about this project?

I had a hard time understanding the steps via videos in the beginning because embroidery was something very new to me but thankfully I get to connect with my instructor via email and facetime and also, my mom came to the rescue whenever I need help and felt lost. Furthermore, I faced difficulty to get needles, threads and loops as many shops in my housing area has been closed down due to Covid-19 pandemic and I had to run here and there to find for shops that were still open and have these items in stock meanwhile those items were far more expensive in online stores and they might also take weeks to get delivered. Other than that, I can say my 4 weeks journey was quite smooth.

4. What has really worked?

I really liked the idea how embroidery beautifies old T-shirts and blouses in my home that were at the edge of getting disposed. I brought a new meaning to the old T-shirts and blouses and it's so satisfying to see my family members wore them to work and occasions and praised me for my hard work and creativity. This really made my day and I felt so proud of myself.

5. What can be improved in this project?

I would say the method of learning. I wouldn't have faced this much of difficulties to learn embroidery if it has been face-to-face. I realized that face-to-face classes are more efficient and I will also get to spend more time with my instructor learning embroidery. Otherwise, this whole project was a success and I get to unlock a new skill in my life.

Please write, upload lots of pictures & videos in this final Padlet =)

1. Were the objectives of the project fulfilled?
Yes

2. What have you enjoyed or liked the most about the project?

Having amazing colleagues and boss, and i actually make friend with some of the regular customers there. Second is helping to decitae the station with malaysian flags as it is already near merdeka day

3. What have you found challenging about this project? (any part of the project you found hard to do)
- It is when i need to face emotional customers hahaha because i am slightly sensitive person so ya.

4. What has really worked? (any part in the project that you thought worked well)
- fulfilling all my objectives although it is hard

5. What can be improved in this project?

- The objectives of this project are first, to promote inclusive communication skills towards the diverse community. Next is to have a better understanding and appreciation towards the community's culture and bridging the gaps in communication between me and the community. Lastly is to help in using patient’s first language as method of communication as it has many benefits towards both healthcare workers and the patient. I would say the first two objectives are achieved while for the last objective, I would need to use this language into practice with my friends and patients. All in all, I can now speak basic Chinese in self-introduction and asking few basic questions.

- I am so excited to use this language while speaking with friends and history taking later on. In addition to that, I can catch a few words and even sentences whenever I heard Chinese people speak around me. Other than that, doing this project have filled my holiday with something valuable and useful, at the very least, later on.

- the most challenging part for me is to keep on track with the timetable as this is an online mandarin class and everything is up to me. Other than that, I need to keep memorizing and practice Chinese because if not, I might forget what I have learnt. Not to forget, I still find intonation is hard.

- I can now do a self-introduction in Chinese! Isn’t that great? I can as well ask a few questions in Chinese in relation to daily activities and health which dan be used later during a clinical history taking.

- Learning a new language in a class, physically, face-to-face with a teacher will help in learning much better, especially in correcting the pronunciation and intonation.

2. Yes indeed because this course was truly an experience I will never forget and informative one. I learned and acquired a new skill through my elective posting. Hence, fulfilling my objective.

3. I enjoyed majority of my time there because I was passionate about learning this skill and I was not bored at all. The one moment that truly made my day was when my teacher complimented me for the way I draped my saree by saying " Your technique is neat and elegant, keep going!". I smiled because I was proud of myself and I believe that inspired me to keep going and perfecting this skill in future.

4. It was challenging to me in the beginning as it was very new to me to learn about makeup and saree draping however I managed to pick up the pace along the way and can confidently do my makeup or saree draping by myself now.

5. I guess what worked is how I could apply the knowledge that I learned from my teacher verbally when I do hands on. When I am able to comprehend and execute this skill myself without anyone's help, I knew that I am definitely doing something right.

6. I would say the time allocated for this posting because I believe the amount of knowledge I learned in one month could be quadruple if I learned this skill in per say 3 months. So maybe the time could be extended a bit longer for me to improvise on this skill.

Week 4

1. Yes! I can proudly said that my objectives in learning Chinese languange had fullfilled. Now I can read, speak and understand a little this languange easily although I still need to practice more. I also able to improve my personal and professional communication skills along the road.

2. What I enjoyed the most was this project had make me feel more confident and build my self esteem. The notes and videos that they gave also fun as it is not as complicated and very understandable. I also liked when they teach me on writing the Chinese characters as I can practice writing it.

3. The part that I found challenging was the quizzes that they gave. As a beginner, I still need some time to process some informations that they give. Other than that, some pronounciation also quite hard as some of the words have same pronounciation but with different meanings.

4. All the videos that they gave and notes really work for me. I feel I can refer to the videos and the notes when I needed. They also give some tips and tricks on how to remember the characters such as symbol and story telling. Through these resources, it thought me to remember, understand and know what the meaning of each character.  The quizzes also test me about my knowledge.

5. They should include mini discussion or some team work to make me more enjoyable and fun. Rather than only giving videos and quizzes, they also should include games so that the students dont get bored easily. I also need to improve myself too by stop procrastinate. I also need to buy books to help me learn more instead of relying on the notes given.

1. Were the objectives of the project fulfilled?

yes i think that i have managed to speak basic Korean language and able to understand some of the common phrases after finally completing the 4 weeks Korean language course.

2. What have you enjoyed or liked the most about the project?

i enjoyed the quizzes session the most as it reflects my understanding towards the Korean language.

3. What have you found challenging about this project? (any part of the project you found hard to do)

I believe that in every language, even in English, grammar is the most difficult part to be learn, same as Korean language. Sometimes, I find it hard to  choose the right subject particles as it will be different for times, places and persons. They also have different sets of numbers to be used in different situations, for example in cases of dates and times.

4. What has really worked? (any part in the project that you thought worked well)

the recording lectures and the quizzes help me the most when learning this language. I loved that in the recording lectures, they provided a fill-in-the-blanks dialogues, and we can pause the video and try to answer them ourselves first. After that, the lecturer will give us the full dialogues and we can compare our answers.

5. What can be improved in this project?
- In my opinion, all of the learning materials that has been provided by this course are sufficient, but if i can do something that can polish more of my Korean language is by joining a real class that is not virtual. In that way, the lecturer can correct my pronunciation and use of words during class. Other than that, I’m fully satisfied that i have joined this course, thank you EP for giving me this opportunity!

3.  What have you found challenging about this project? (any part of the project you found hard to do)

The most challenging thing about this project was the schedule between 2 tournaments are packed and some match which are the final match of double category in KASUPER tournament at Bangi was overlapped with Single category match in Interfaculty Sports Carnival at Kolej Tun Syed Nasir. It was tiring but we had prepared for those situations. We managed to go for both event.

1. Were the objectives of the project fulfilled?

All of the objectives that stated on my application form are achieved. I am now able to read, write and speak Hanguel. Besides, I am now also able to understand basic conversation spoken by native Korean. Last but not least, I am able to understand the similarities and diffrences between Hanguel and Mandarin in terms of words formation and orientation.

2. What have you enjoyed or liked the most about the project?

I liked Prof Seung Hae Kang the most bacause all of her lectures was conducted in a very brief way so that everyone can understand. Her lectures also involved some interaction where she will ask us to pronounce the Korean sentences together. All of his lectures is around 10 minutes but it serves alot of information to be learned.

3. What have you found challenging about this project? (any part of the project you found hard to do)

At the first 2 weeks, identifying all the vowels and consonents always had me in headache. I really put a lot of efforts and time to get used to them. I think vocabulary is most challenging now. Most of the time I am able to read and pronounce the words however I cant understand the senteces. It require a long time of exposure and practices to master a langauge.

4. What has really worked? (any part in the project that you thought worked well)

Definitely the lectures. The lectures is each cahpter is equally important and very useful in our daily life conversation. Other than that, there is also a notes provided after each chapter. These notes allow us to revise back what had been taught in the lectures and there is also some practices in it. I always use it to practice my hand-writing in writing Hanguel words.

5. What can be improved in this project?

I think the best situation is me myself going to Korean to apply what I learn. This is because the environment will force myself to speak Korean language. Perhaps the native Korean will correct me as well. Its definitely helps me a lot if I able to visit Korean.

Nur Farahin binti Abu Bakar, A173924, 14th August 2022

1. Were the objectives of the project fulfilled?

I definitely feel that I managed to fulfill all the objectives as evidence of I am getting better with Korean pronunciation in speaking and understanding Korean literature. Other than that, I managed to understand accurately what the actors or actresses are saying in Korean dramas or variety shows without the help of subtitles. I am completely delighted with this improvement and will definitely look forward  to learn Korean at higher level.

2. What have you enjoyed or liked the most about the project?

One thing that I am truly enjoy and grateful about this project is how great the lessons were arranged from the start. It is very convenient, well structured with lecture notes in each lesson, quizzes with evaluated marks and the examples given are really easy to understand. It truly helps me a lot during this 4 weeks journey of learning Korean in intermediate level. I can always refer back to all the notes or lectures given without any problem.

3. What have you found challenging about this project? (any part of the project you found hard to do)

The most challenging part of the project for me is when I need to make a sentence based on the verb or noun given worksheet exercise. Just like any other languages, when you make a sentence, you need to make sure it is well delivered to others by using correct adjectives, verbs, nouns and prefix. I used to have this doubt back then that as I was not that confident to make sentences because people might misunderstood it but I can gradually see my improvement making sentences accurately with the helps of Papago and Naver apps. Another thing is it is unfortunate that I cannot get the certificate at the end of learning because of the upgraded version of the course requires payment so I find it quite hard for me but overall I enjoy the 4 weeks of learning process.

4. What has really worked? (any part in the project that you thought worked well)

My way of understanding Korean text or literature is definitely getting better with the helps of quizzes each week. I may find it quite difficult to reply a text or make a paragraph on the spot but if I am given a text or paragraph to translate, I definitely can understand what are the authors or writers trying to deliver. I can feel this sense of accomplishment when I can understand the whole text accurately.

5. What can be improved in this project?

This project basically covers various kind of topic including Korean greetings, travelling, personality, appearance, consideration, mistake, consolidation and appreciation that need to be completed within 6 weeks. I believe this project could be improved with including other topics as well such as Hangeul and Korean history and culture. It would be good to learn Korean culture in depth as we can be more appreciative towards other country’s culture. In addition to that, I believe this project could be improved with the help of Korean pen-pal or Kakaotalk- learning mates to make it easier for them to correct my works and help me to learn Korean better in daily basis. It is quite a shame that this time I cannot find my old Kakaotalk friends that used to help me in learning Korean back then since we lost contacts for few years. I think it would be a great help to improve my Korean with the help of these pen-pal friends.

NUR FATIHAH BINTI ABDUL RAHMAN, A174302, 12/08/2022

1.    Were the objectives of the project fulfilled?

Yes, the objectives have been met. Gaining work experience, developing interpersonal skills, building communication skills and confidence are examples. I want to keep working part-time after my elective posting is through. I now recognise the significance and difficulty of working in retail. I learned to respect other people's professions from it.

2.    What have you enjoyed or liked the most about the project?

At work, I enjoyed learning new tasks. Everyday is a difficult but enjoyable experience. Meeting new people from diverse backgrounds has improved my communication skills. The primary source of enjoyment, in my opinion, is having extra pocket money. I learned to be more self-reliant and frugal with my money. Since I started working, my self-confidence had also greatly increased. I enjoyed conversing with others now more than ever.

3.    What have you found challenging about this project? (any part of the project you found hard to do)

Being punctual at work was challenging. Sometimes my night shift ended around 10 pm, and the next day I had to report for work at 9 am. Although it might be somewhat chaotic, I've become accustomed to it. Another thing was to display and create a look creatively. The clothing that came in was sometimes highly distinctive and challenging to style, but working with my teammates helped us create the greatest look for the mannequin that would draw customers. It could also be difficult when new stock arrived because we had to decide where to put the things on display. The market for Levi’s is small because they are extremely pricey. I sometimes got really bored because there were not many customers, and it was challenging for me to learn how to interact with them. As a result, encouraging and ensuring the customer to buy can be difficult.

4.    What has really worked? (any part in the project that you thought worked well)

There has been progress in folding techniques. I liked how the staff would speak up and correct my mistakes in folding rather than remain silent. They complained that the jeans were too short when I folded them. I've grown from my mistakes, and I now fold as instructed. Next, I would say it's impressive that after only two weeks of work, I remembered the jeans' type and code name. One of the tasks required us to manually count every item in the store and backroom. We were able to complete the stock counts in a single day thanks to the staff's cooperation.

5.    What can be improved in this project?

I want to get better at communicating with team members and customers. One of the skills I'd like to improve is time management.

1. All three f my objectives were fulfilled since I am very fond to this community since I was young, self education, exposure and also gaining a lot from this martial art were my objective all along

2. I enjoyed a lot during training as it helps me release a lot of stress and I think the community there was very friendly towards me so I would definitely go back if I have time

3. I think the hard part was finding which and what to record my video since I did not want to interrupt my training and also the stretching was both enjoyable and challenging

4. I think the self education regarding martial arts and also educating myself regarding discipline through tae kwon do, I also improved a lot on my kicks and punches

5. I think I want to have more time in order to really embrace what this martial arts has to offer. I had to do this project with little guidance but I think it is enough for me to introduce this martial art to the community

Were the objectives of the project fulfilled?
- Personally, I would say I fulfilled the objectives which is to learn Korean language. I could understand a little bit of Korean now compared to before. I definitely would continue joining more Korean language course if I had the time

What have you enjoyed or liked the most about the project?
- I enjoy the lectures and notes very much as it is easy to understand. The lectures were short but filled with a lot of information.

What have you found challenging about this project? (any part of the project you found hard to do)
- The most challenging part of this project is the pronounciation of each alphabets as it is a new thing for me. It is also hard to practice it as I have no one to talk Korean to.

What has really worked? (any part in the project that you thought worked well)
- The notes given during each unit of the course helps alot as I could easily visualize how to write the alphabets as well as pronouce it better. The video lecture given is also very helpful as the lecturer slowly goes through it vocabulary to make me understand better

What can be improved in this project?
- Things that could be improved is that I could find a partner who is also learning or speaks Korean to make it easier for me to train my Korean in a daily basis.
