Day 16, IS classes and Assignment Presentation!

We started off day 16 by waking up early for IS classes. We were being taught about the different chinese cultures in China in the past years. It was really interesting as we were being told stories of what the different cultures did in the past before having a marriage and stuff like that. Also, during the lessons, we were told to wear the microphones for class. It was pretty cool as all the teacher had to do was talk into a microphone that was built in together with his headphones and we could all hear him. It was the first time i experienced a lesson this way. Below are some of the pictures.

Listening attentively in class :P


Just as we all got bored, we were given a 5minutes break. So we started to take random photos. Below are some of it!

After the break, the China lecturer continued to talk about many interesting stuff and showed us a video of what a Chinese couple had to go through before getting married in the past. After that, he ended the lecture.


End of lecture!

After lecture we headed back to the hostel to finish touching up our group assignment as we were going to have presentation later in the afternoon at about 2pm. As it was the first presentation, some were pretty nervous about it.

I got hungry along the way :P
In a blink of an eye, it was time for class! So we all headed back to the classroom from our hostel. We started off having a lecture on Business Process Engineering by our trip leader, Mr Joseph Loh. After that, it was time for presentation. My group was the first to present, followed by many other groups. Below are the pictures!

Group 5: Eshlyn, Shun Qing, Xanier
Unfortunately, we were short on time, so some groups did not manage to present and were being told to present the following day. They were pretty happy about it as they had one extra day to prepare. So after presentation, we all headed back to our hostels for a short rest, followed by dinner. After dinner, we all did our blogging and went to bed to rest :)
Thats all for today!

REFLECTIONS!
After today i have learnt how to respect others more. Whereby when they are presenting, I should keep quiet and pay attention to whatever they are talking so that it would be easier for them as there would be no noise to distract them from presenting properly.
Also, i have learnt that we should listen to other people's opinions too as they may think differently from us, and that sometimes we may leave out some points about the topics. Thus if we listen, we will learn more as we will also learn on the things that we ourselves have missed out.

END!
