One of the reasons why I chose to take ES2007S was that it would give me a 3-day week. I figured, since I am going to graduate next semester, I should take it easy. Even though it eventually didn't give me an easy time, I am glad I took it.
Right from the first class, when Brad had us running around to fill up that list, I knew this module would be different from the rest. In other tutorials, you would be considered lucky if the tutor asked everyone to introduce themselves. I appreciate Brad making the effort to let everyone to interact, by putting us in different groups for each class. It's nice to find myself back in a cosy classroom environment after graduating from junior college.
As for communication skills, I can't say for sure if I've improved but one thing is for sure - I've gained a better understanding of what communication is about. I've learnt what EQ is exactly and am trying to put it to good use. I've learnt to pay more attention to non-verbal cues. I've learnt how to write a resume, application letter, personal statement and proposal, all of which would come in handy soon. Another thing I like about ES is the feedback and review sessions. It gives true meaning to "the process is more important than the outcome".
All in all, I had fun taking ES2007S. Finally, there is a module which I don't dread going to class for. Thank you everyone, for making this class so enjoyable. Thank you, Brad, for sharing with us your knowledge and making this module fun.
