Activity
that I have participated in my college life in Taylor’s college subang jaya
Description
I am a science stream
student. In one year time I studied in Taylor’s college, I had only
participated in a few activities. The activity that makes me learn many things
and have the most recall was the trip to Taylor’s university Lakeside.
It is a field trip to
visit the campus and have more ideas about the future path way. It is a
Saturday morning, my friend, Phang wen qi and I joined this trip and around
9.00am we reached the campus by bus. All the buildings are modern and
spectacular. It is an eye catching scenery with a lake between the sky high
buildings.
Firstly, we had a tour
round the university campus and a student council was introducing the place. Then,
we attended a talk about the future career. Then we went to a chemistry lab and
had some fun activities. We are divided into few groups and took turn to see
the chemistry experiments such as gas chromatography, atomic absorption
spectroscopy and so on. These all were carried by the lab assistants using all
the high technology equipments with high precision and accuracy.
Then, we went to
another chemistry lab to have some hand on works. We were divided into few
groups and my group members were Tan kah look, Amber, Justin, Phang wen qi. We
did the titration experiment and I had learned many things in this experiment
such as team works, and be humble. After
that, we had our lunch in the cafeteria and then the trip ended at around 1 pm.
From this trip, I have
learned some lessons such as interpersonal skills, life long learning, thinking
and problem solving skills. This makes me feels that my college is interesting
and full of fun. From the trip, we can do some hands on work and think
something out of the box.
From this trip, I found
that we need team work, interpersonal skill, thinking and problem solving
skills. This is because during the experiment, we need to help each other to
complete the experiment in the limited time. That is the first time I meet the
group member and we are new to each other. Therefore, we must have interpersonal
skill so that we can have same idea in carrying out the experiment. We have to
discuss about the steps of the experiment carried out and have well planned
schedule to make sure that there is no mistake in the experiment.
Evaluation
Before
that, I have the idea that it is just a trip to visit a university; I do not
think that there are so many things I could learn in this trip. It is an eye opening
experience and from the talk given by the lecturer in the university, I make me
to think about my future and what should I do so that I will not waste my
pleasure time and choose the right pathway for my own self. Besides that, I
have that learning is a lifelong activity. We should enrich ourselves with the
knowledge and become a person that has contribution to the social and world. Besides
that, from the experiment carried out during the trip, I have learned something
that could be applied during chemistry class and assignment. This helps me to
achieve a greater grade of ATAR.
Plan
I hope
that college admin will organize more this kind of activity for their students
so that they can have widened their views and have more deep thinking.
