REFLECTION

1.      My Interest In Learning English, esp Writing

English has entered the structure of the language structure in various countries as well. So, it would be good for us to know the meaning of the words that enter our language structure because it can happen at any time along with the times. There are many ways to improve your English skills, for example, you can start by practicing speaking English, reading English articles in newspapers, magazines or the internet, trying to make English-language essays to improve your writing skills.

Use existing media to the maximum, such as: listening to music or watching English-language films to improve your listening skills. But basically, I like writing since the end of Elementary School. My friends say if mey writing is good, then I like writing more.

Even though I’m still very lacking in grammar, but it’s okay. I will still like it and will study harder.

2.      My Opinion on Doing The Project-Based Learning

At the beginning of Project-Based learning I felt like I could not follow, feeling lazy. I feel this activity will be very boring because we use a blog.

But it turns out, doing Project-Based learning is very interesting. I like this activity even more. This is very fun. I can express thoughts that I've never imagined. I can be creative about my blog and of course, my blog can be more useful. I am very happy and hope that my blog will continue in the future with more weighty blog content.

3.      The Advantages of The Project-Based Learning

The advantages that can be taken from Project-Based learning is that I feel that this makes me pour more what is on my mind (ideas). I can decorate blogs with funny animations. I also got new friends and new experiences as well as new challenges.

The project that I really like is when I get the assignment to create and post diaries. When I went to school in junior high school, I often made diaries, whether I was happy or sad. And incidentally when the project was announced, I just finished writing a diary which at that time I was very happy. So I was very interested in immediately translating and completing the task.

4.      The Challenges of Doing The Project-Based Learning

The challenge that I get when working on Project-Based learning is quite a lot. From the first project that was chatting with native speakers which I had never even chat with outside people. Actually, if I remember back at that time I was very afraid to start. My friends have started working while I haven't. When many of my friends have finished, I just started, and even then, accompanied by a close friend of mine. When I got the right native speaker, I started conversation after conversation until the task was finally finished.

When there was a project writing a postcard I was very interested. Why? That's because I have never sent a postcard to anyone. At first, I was confused about sending it to whom, but finally I chose to send it to my brother. When I started writing the contents, there was a writing error. I was sad and finally, I bought a new postcard with pictures that were funnier than before. I began to write again with caution. The end of my poscard was finished shortly afterward and I immediately posted to my blog.

5.   My Feedback on How The Instructor (Ms. Devi Hermasari S.Pd., M.A.) Facilitates The Process of Project-Based Learning

I feel, Ms. Devi the person is very positive thinking. She always gives positive energy to his students, maybe to everyone. She is a person who is always excited every day. The way to teach is very interactive and easy to understand, she seems to be one with students. The way she teaches is very different from other lecturers. Writing courses are fun and most awaited courses.

I thought, Ms. Devi prepares the project and teaching materials for each student perfectly, so that every project is always achieved according to the target. The project provided also varies and always gives new experiences to students. Hopefully, in the future, it will be better and more varied because I am sure that the students are very happy when attending the lesson. Thank you, Ms. Devi..

6.      My Overall Impression on Doing the Project-Based Learning

My Overall Impression on Doing the Project-Based Learning is very fun, very interesting, and very useful. This learning method is fun, interesting, and useful because doing the Project-Based learning has new experiences. It is also a challenge for me to complete each project given. I am very agree and very happy with this method of learning because this is very suitable for me. Project-based leaning really helps me to discipline time. With this method, my writing skills are pretty much better.

About whether I will continue my portfolio in the future or not, maybe sometimes when I have free time or I want to write, I will do it. Maybe by writing a diary, writing cooking recipes, or just sharing stories of my personal experiences.
