4 Reflection
Whenever you learn new skills, it’s important to take the time to reflect on your progress.
Activity 5 Reflecting
Look back at the notes you have made in your reflective journal and identify one thing you want to learn more about.
Let’s hear from Kyaw Win about his reflections on this first week of study.
“Hello, my name’s Kyaw Yin and I live in Mawlamyine with my mum and dad. They’re great and really encourage me with my interests and dreams. I’m not very confident with computers but I feel much more comfortable with mobile phones. I use my mobile phone a lot from staying in contact with friends and family through Whats app, Viber and Facebook to ordering a rickshaw with Grab to take me places.
This course will be good for me because I need to get up to date with digital skills. I feel I need to be more confident with things like social media and using a search engine because these are important for getting a better job. I work in a shop at the moment selling and repairing bicycles, but I want to move into marketing. My ideal job would be marketing bicycles as I’m a keen cyclist. So I need to get some marketing qualifications which will mean more study, and I will have to do this online because I can’t afford to leave my job and study full time.”
