WEEK 1- INTRODUCTION TO INTEGRATED PROJECT

The first class attended in Sheffield Hallam University was the lecture for Integrated Project conducted by the module leader Mr. Dave Weatherall. In the lecture, assessment criteria for the module had been introduced. This is an interesting assignment as it is slightly different from the previous assignment doing method. Padlet Wall and Google’s Blogger had been introduced under the module and had impressed me the most.

I see Padlet wall as an effective communication platform facilitates mind mapping and reviews information interestingly. It’s easy to be used as information insertion can be done through clicks. Users can share information collected from various sources on a common topic and presents beautifully on a particular wall instead of slides as compared with Microsoft Power point. I find it interesting after using as it is a new learning method not being introduced previously. I will make use of this application to complete this module and present information attractively in future working life.

Beforehand, I think blogging is not necessary and time wasting. However, after the lecture, I’d tried to start blogging. I find its fun to blog about daily experience and some reflective thoughts after an activity. Blogging provides me the chance to improve myself by undertaking the comments left by other bloggers besides sharing my ideas and experiences. However, in this module, students are encouraged to create own reflective blog for the purpose to be more analytic during learning process.

By utilising the two new learning methods mentioned above, I may also demonstrate knowledge and understanding of effective oral, written, and presentation skills including the methods and techniques that are appropriate to specific situations which satisfy one of the competencies for Assessment of Professional Competence requirements for RICS.
