Participating in the Diabolo 5.0 activity had a positive impact on the development of my Student Graduate Attributes. Firstly, this activity has significantly enhanced my communication skills. This is because discussing the movement and the trick with other participants allowed me to learn how to effectively communicate with others to convey my ideas and the problem I faced. Secondly, this activity has strengthened my thinking skills. This is because learning new tricks required critical thinking and problem solving. Therefore, I have learned to break the tasks into small manageable steps and adapt my approach when faced with challenges. Furthermore, I also improved my leadership and teamworking skills because we work as a team and we will help each other when they have faced some problems.
One of my strengths in this activity is my quick learning ability. I have been able to grasp the basic movements and techniques involved in diabolo rapidly. Additionally, my unwavering determination and consistent practice have allowed me to progress and master more complex tricks.
Despite the benefits, I have faced challenges during this activity, especially in synchronizing movements and timing within the team. To overcome this, we have dedicated ample time to practice, focused on building trust and understanding among team members, and improved our communication.
In conclusion, participating in the Diabolo 5.0 activity has been positively impacting my personal growth and cultivating important Student Graduate Attributes that will serve me well in the future.
