Final Reflection

Towards the end of this semester, all my modules have ended or going to the end. Take a glance back at what I have learned in ES2007s, I have developed a more effective communication skills and I also really appreciate the learning experiences throughout the course of ES2007s.

As what I have written in blog post one, I still think interpersonal communication skills and the skills of mastering communication networks are important to me. And I have learnt many ways to develop them, which I have never thought about. I realize that to have a good interpersonal relation, I need pay attention to a lot of details. I need know the person’s culture, and using correct verb cues and non-verb cues. Moreover, in different situation I should follow different rules, such as formal, informal and professional. Also I know that having communication goals and focus on audience will make things work more effective. What is more important, I have to express different feelings in various situations to show versatility, flair and affirmation.

Besides what I learnt above, I also have a profound understanding of the importance of communication in team throughout the process of doing report and oral presentation. A good communication really are playing the role of lube, bringing me better cooperation with my teammates, generating team spirit and helping to create a more pleasant work environment.

Overall, this course has enriched me with skills and tools, which I can practice nowadays and in the future, making me a good communicator.
