Learning Journal 7
Hi all my VIPS,
I hope despite the 'pressure'(weather nowadays is very unpredictable - it may rain heavily in the morning and sunny after that)all of you are up and going. Must be pretty tough; well that's is what life is all about. Have faith in what you are doing and things will be a bit better. After all - education is the most expensive investment - sometimes it takes all you have to achieve the best but I believed if you do it the smart way and the right way; it will be more meaningful at the end...
Three more weeks - all of you will be done with this semester; the experience, be it good or bad is meant to be evaluated for the betterment of your learning process. Share with me what you have learned from classroom, your friends, the unit involved and all in all what your teachers (Sifu) has shared with you during your learning process.
Obviously, I am more interested in knowing how my Chinese learner/s has learned especially all the new things. Do you find that now, you not only searched for the information but how you used the information to relate to the real business situation. Do you find it difficult when you have to reason out(remember my tagline- 'so what')or analyze the information. If so, why do you think it is so difficult and how do you overcome this difficulties.
And do you think that learning is about knowing the facts, memorizing it and then pour it out in the final exam (your're lucky if your brain is like a photocopy machine) or it is something that you need to do in the future (life long learning).
Well, I think I am asking too much here, but share your thoughts with me and in the mean time...your engine are all well service at the moment, so used to the limit but make sure you give your engine a rest when it need one...
Don't forget, show your appreciation to your mum who have given you all the love on Mother's day - doesn't have to be expensive present but an sms will keep you connected (use Nokia handphone - Connecting to People) and also your appreciation to all your teachers on "Teacher's Day".
I rest my case
