Reflection 2 -- SEM 2 -- Adi Syachrin

 Second reflection of the second semester and man... why is this so frustrating for no reason?

I recall just in my very last reflection I spoke on how this topic is relatively fun and I'm hoping to expand more on my presentation skills with this. However, after that second presentation, I realize how difficult it actually is to deliver a more engaging presentation. In all seriousness, I'm positive that the reason why my presentation ended up being as sub-par as it was is because I tried fitting more information than last time just because our presentation time was extended by 2 minutes and that caused me to over-explain way too many things. I once again rushed my presentation which caused this lapse in my progress.

However, I was pretty pleased at the fact that Miss seemed to prefer this second presentation more since I included the extra game at the end that would help engage my audience even more. I mostly liked how that game also just made it even more fun for me to present, although my time exceeded double our limit and I presented for ten minutes... sigh,

The inclusion of more pictures also made my presentation more appealing.

Right now, I just need to prioritize cutting out the things that I'm definitely pushing in my presentations. Miss advised to everyone to practice our presentations which should be obvious but IN MY DEFENSE, I spent my last weekend in Tagaytay and I spent the subsequent days catching up on my work. It's alllll excuses though so I'll shut up now.

I can make time this time to practice more and actually watch the videos that Miss posted. On top of practice, I think I'll focus on refining the slides themselves and think of creative ways to add on the engagement.

I think I'll bring real flowers to school for the next presentation for a live-show of some sort. Or I can also incorporate it into my games again. We'll see after I redo the presentation!

Anyways, that's all I have for this week's reflection. 

Thank you for reading!

Blog #3

First blog of the year! This blog includes the padlet of many, many AEP meetings.  Last padlet of the year (December 10, 2024). On that day, we didn't do much, just played games. We first played Scrabble (which Selim won) and then played Waffle. Had fun that day. First padlet of the year (January 7, 2025). The break went by so quickly, it didn't feel like 2 weeks at all. I wish it was longer. Anyways, at the start of the class, Miss Disa asked us about the lessons she taught us and if we learned/remembered anything from it. After that, we played Scrabble once more. Somehow Selim beat us again. Selim is insanely lucky in Scrabble for some reason. He had nearly double everyone's score. He had around 120 something points if I remember correctly. We then played Contexto after we finished playing Scrabble. I enjoyed AEP and had a lot of fun. Missed lying on my bed though. Second padlet (January 14, 2025). The class began with us playing Unlimited Wordle. It looked and seemed lik...

Busra D (AEP 3.1)

ITS ALREADY 3ND TRIMESTER THAT IS CRAZY. Time goes by so fast like flash I’m excited and nervous at the same time for this 3rd trimester!!  This time I will do my blog different , I’ll just explain what we did most of the time in AEP. Before we get to the main part of our topic of game we always play word puzzles to get our mind moving, it helps us not sleep in AEP heh. Sometimes we also play scrabble which is really fun. I lost my streak sadly :( Jia is really good I’m usually 2nd place. One of my core memorize is dogo news miss makes it so fun to read and has interesting topics ( just like the banana taped on the wall) it will never get out of my mind. We also do listening tasks which is alright I guess. Well anyways this 2nd trimester went by so fast hope to see you next time byeee!!!.

End and the start of term!

Helloooo everyone! Welcome with another blast! See, your favorite blogger is not late this time!!! And that is because it's just the start of another term, and the workload from school is quite light. Can you believe it's the last term already?? I am still in disbelief—only 2/3 of grade 11 is left, and then our final year of high school... I don't even want to think about it! We have learned a lot of things in AEP last term, including discovering new games and learning a lot more of Miss Disa's fun anecdotes. AEP this year has taught me a lot of technical terms as we have been getting lessons on very niche and specific topics. You know how a word appears a lot when you newly learn it? Now, due to my expansion of vocabulary, I started seeing the words I am learning everywhere, and that brings a bit of peace in me, as I think, well, I am learning something. We had worksheets on Healthcare, Crime and Punishment, Business, and Politics. My favorite among them was the health...
