Learning Experiences

The objectives of my learning experiences at London South Bank University, first year, I had to do a presentation on my sales pitch. My reflections I was nervous to do my presntation to the class as I’ve got to know majority of the students I thought, one of the students, might put me off. It would have been essier to do my presentation at the beginning when I started uni, as I didn’t know anyone. In my opinion I thought that my sales pitch presentation could have went a bit better . I had to take a deep breath before I could start. Even though I had my notes in my hand and knew what I was going to say, I spoke, but froze at the same time and I was getting confused about what I was saying and I think, that the audience did too. Once I finsihed my presentation I got asked questions from the audience and I was confident then,when given an answer. This applies the same to my business environment unit. I need to overcome this experience as for my pathway choice on Multimedia Computing during week12/13 I’ve got a presentation. In order to improve I need to practice, to overcome my shyness, by taking deep breaths and blocking my emotions.

At the end of the day, it’s my future and only I can solve this problem. Career wise will involve presentations. The blogs and feedback from dynamic business systems unit was very useful. As I experienced issues within my work and reading through the students blog, gave me a better understanding why these issues occurred and what I needed to do differently. The feedback I received from DBS, made me realise I need to proof read my work and to not rush what I’ve written, if I want to get a better mark. I’ve learned I need to focus and work on my time management to achieve a better result. I’m going start doing differently by reading more. From reading through previous essay, I’ve realised that all my essays start the same.

I need to amaze readers with my essay. Another point would be contributing more in classes, especially for multimedia computing as I’m working towards my career, its best to ask the questions now, instead of leaving it too later. I’ve learnt, if I want to achieve higher marks, I need to put in more hours in my work, rather than, just using the seminar hours. From my semester one, group task experience, I was working with students who I didn’t know, goals were met, and able to move onto the next, even was to be able to check work through to make improvements. Working with people I don’t socialise with, I find that the work got done quicker. I was motivated and demanded to complete the task because I was indeed to do the work, didn’t want to let the team down and wanted to move forward.
