Conserve To Preserve : #Go Green - Muhammad Taufiq bin Jurimi

The crafting video competition had a profound impact on the development of students' Graduate Attributes. Through active participation, students had the opportunity to enhance their Communication Skills by effectively conveying the message of sustainability through their videos. They also sharpened their Thinking Skills by employing creative and innovative ideas to create visually captivating content. Engaging in thorough research on sustainable crafting techniques and materials further nurtured their Scholarship. Additionally, the competition fostered their Adaptability as they navigated challenges and adjusted their plans accordingly, while emphasizing the importance of being a Global Citizen by promoting environmental consciousness and responsibility.

Engaging in the crafting video competition allowed me to leverage my self-strength and gain a significant advantage in the activities. I focused on my creativity and artistic abilities to conceptualize a unique and visually compelling video. By utilizing the resources available within the KTDI area, I showcased my adaptability and made the most of the surroundings to capture the essence of sustainability. Moreover, my passion for environmental conservation provided me with the drive and determination to create a video that not only conveyed a powerful message but also resonated with the audience.

One of the challenges I faced during the competition was the lack of transport to explore the entire UTM campus and incorporate various locations into my video. To overcome this obstacle, I embraced a solution-oriented mindset. Rather than dwelling on what I couldn't do, I focused on what I could do within my limitations. I creatively utilized the spaces available within the KTDI area, exploring different angles, props, and settings to create visually appealing scenes. By maintaining a positive attitude and maximizing the potential of the given environment, I was able to produce a high-quality video that captured the spirit of sustainability and effectively conveyed my message.

From June 21st to 25th, PEKA hosted their event "Conserve to Preserve: #GoGreen" to raise awareness and encourage sustainable behavior. There are crafting video competition, TikTok environment challenge and environment talks for active engagement on how to protect our planet. The purpose of this program was to instill environmental consciousness and promote sustainable practices.

My motivation for taking part in the video competition for crafting was derived from my love for conservation efforts and artistic pursuits. This venture gave me a chance to fuse my creativeness with a meaningful project that aimed to spread a message of sustainability. My participation in this project made a little but notable contribution to raising awareness of the value of resource preservation and the use of recyclable materials for creative projects. By taking part in the competition, I was able to demonstrate my skill at recycling materials to construct an eco-friendly and useful creation, which strengthened my commitment to sustainable practices.

The crafting video competition allow me to develope essential Graduate Attributes, including Communication Skills, Thinking Skills, Scholarship, Adaptability, and Global Citizenship. Through effective communication, I conveyed the significance of sustainability, encouraging eco-friendly practices among viewers. Employing creative thinking, I conceptualized a visually captivating video that stood out amidst the competition. Thorough research contributed to my scholarly growth, broadening my understanding of sustainable crafting techniques and materials. As challenges emerged during the crafting process, I showcased adaptability by quickly adjusting my approach and finding innovative solutions. By focusing on environmental sustainability, the competition instilled a sense of global citizenship, nurturing a responsibility to protect our planet for future generations.

The focus of the activities is on campaigns to improve environmental awareness. The crafts video competition urged competitors to show off their inventiveness in upcycling recyclable materials, improving creative thinking. The TikTok environment challenge used social media tools to reach a larger audience and encourage them to make quick videos promoting sustainable habits. Participants were able to gain a deeper awareness of environmental problems and solutions because to the insightful information offered by environmental speakers on matters including climate change, waste management, and conservation techniques. Together, these initiatives encouraged conservation efforts and gave people the confidence to take action in their daily lives.
