Reflective Writing 2

After finishing South Australia Matriculation, I always struggled what kind of decision should I make to achieve my goal which is entering the universities of my choice. Before the MPU classes started, I did not expect much about the thing learnt from MPU as I thought that it is mostly about BM, Sejarah and Moral. However, after attending the first week of MPU 2 classes, I found that the classes are extremely interesting and useful. Through the classes, I not only understood what preparations and actions should I take in order to be accepted by my dream universities, but also I can know more about myself as well as discover my hidden potential.

Before doing the first activities of the MPU 2 classes, I was asked to prepare my own blog with a title - "My Portfolio". In fact, this is my first time starting and writing a blog. By writing a blog, I can express more about myself and share my opinions to the public. Although there are a lot of articles which I need to post on my blog, I know that this can actually help me to improve my ability of writing an article or essay. So, after using blog for few days, I found that blog is a good platform to share thinking to the public.

About the first activity of MPU 2 classses, I remember that I was asked to write a biography data to share my basic information to those who see my blog. The next activity was actually the Reflective Writing 1. All students were arranged into 4-8 people per group to start this activity. In this activity, each groups was asked to state the Taylor's Graduate Capabilities which we had developed during South Australia Matriculation by using the DIEP method which represent Describe, Interpret, Evaluate and Plan.Hence, teamwork can be practiced through this activity. After that, I was asked to write an article about my dream universities and another article about my inspiration. Next, I was given an online test and a practical test to test my learning style. I am agree with the results which shows that I am a kinaesthetic learner and slightly visual learner. After the test, I did SWOT analysis which represent Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. This analysis helps me to know my strengths and weaknesses. Another online test about my personalities was given and it shows that I am an entertainer. Then, I also did the SMART goal which representing Specific, Measure, Attainable, Relevant and Time-Bound. The SMART goal can help me to work towards my goal.
Action plan was then be prepared according to my SMART goal and SWOT analysis. Lastly, I was asked to write a Reflective Writing 2 to summarize the experiences in the MPU 2 classes this few days.

I did enjoy these MPU 2 classes as the classes really gave me a lot of idea about my future studies and the means and ways to achieve my goal. Since this MPU 2 classes are beneficial, I am looking forward for the MPU 1 and MPU 3 classes on the next 2 weeks.
