About research project

I really appreciate the chance we have to carry out the research and do the report. I gained a lot from it.
The first one is my computer skills. Before I came Singapore, I had been determined to pick up how to use Microsoft Office. Due to delay and my laziness, I haven't improved much. Fortunately, the research report gave us the chance. We have a lot of tasks to do which must be done with Office,
so I really learned a lot about it.
Besides the technical skills, I also learned many skills in presentation. Such as eye contact, body language, pitch, tones, pause, gesture, voice, etc. What is more, I gained more confidence during the process, which is the most important for a foreign speaker.
Thirdly, teamwork. As Chinese students, teamwork is exactly what we lack. We learned how to share our thoughts, how to exchange ideas, how to persuade other members to accepted our ideas. Conflicts cannot be avoided, but we all understand others, we know that we all sacrificed a lot. And our friendship grows much stronger.
In a word, a meaningful research report.

  1. Your blogs are always succinct but concentrated. I like your evaluation in our team work though we still need a lot of progress. I am always appreciating the harmonious state among our group. Maybe we are not the best group, maybe we have not done the most excellent job; however, it is splendid that we all enjoy it!
