5.0 KNOWLEDGE I GAINED IN THIS MODULE:

5.1 Lifelong Learning

This module required us to be more independent and able to extract the information from the Pulau Jerejak island that we have visited. For me, I have learnt how to propose a new idea in improving the island through discussion with my group members. Every one of us has been assigned task by our leader in order to fulfil the idea that we are proposing. So, throughout the assignment I am in charge of work scheduling. Based on the working scheduling, I have learnt to allocate each of the activities in order to derive the completion date of the construction.

5.2 Thinking and Problem Solving Skills

Thinking and problem solving skills are gained during the discussion with my group member in order to provide most effective idea in proposing our project.

5.3 Communication skills

During the assignment session, we have communicated with our lecturer in order to provide a more viability of our propose idea towards the improvement of the Pulau Jerejak Island. Throughout the communication, we have actually learnt the things that we need to concern in order to prevent any risk that may cause our project to be non-viable.


5.4 Interpersonal skills

We are able to practice our leadership skills, especially during the initial stage of the assignment. I have learnt how to distribute the assignment workload to my team member to carry out the assignment.


In conclusion, learning by taking new task is crucial in my career as Project Management. As in the future, various unfamiliar task will be assigned and it depend on how we take it as a challenge to improve our career.
