Reflection
- Impact of the activities on the development of students' Graduate Attribute
In the event, one of the Graduate Attributes that was focused on was the communication skills, especially the “communication skills” in the Virtual Delegation 2021 committee. I tried to always communicate with the program director, give my opinions and suggestions related to the program. I always contact with the program director about any updated task that I made and I tried to make sure the information that I get is same with other committees. The event has also trained the “leadership and team working” skill of each committee member. As previously mentioned, the committee members needed to communicate with each other to make this event run smoothly. When we are talking about team working, we need to considered other crews in all aspects, and don’t stress ourselves by doing all the tasks by solo. As a leader, it is a must to know how to divide the tasks equally with all crews. In addition, the head of multimedia trained their leadership skills by guiding and directing other committee members and crews before, during and after the event. Lastly, the event trained the “adaptability skills”. Normally in many events we still will encountered the technical problems, last minutes’ decisions, many work and need to submit it in rush. Therefore, each committee will need to adapt and handle any tasks that they have not expected or not experience before.
- Self strength/advantage towards the activities
In this activity , my strength is I can do multiple tasks, full of determinant to organize the event and i have a lot of idea and backup plans if the event get some problems or issues. So i can still survive the program and make it until success. And i know to divide the tasks in the program proposal so everyone will know their work and i can reduce my stress and i don't have to work it all by myself.
- Challenges and how to overcome
The biggest challenge i faced was the task that already submit has several corrections in the last minutes time requested by director of program. Next, sometime i was unable to speak English fluently and make it conversation longer. So, to overcome i need to always turn on WhatsApp notification so i will not miss or receive late the information from the other committees or the program director. And to improve my language i always search the word in dictionary first and then practice it a lot to enhance my speaking fluency.
