 REFLECTIVE WRITING:

Throughout my studies at UiTM Cawangan Johor, Kampus Segamat, I have had

many personal learning experiences that have shaped my perspective on life and
helped me grow as a person and a student. These experiences have taught me many
valuable lessons, from the importance of time management to the value of
perseverance and hard work.

One of the most significant learning experiences I had was during my first
semester at UiTM. As a new student, I was excited but also nervous with new method of
study which is online class because of the pandemic Covid-19. The coursework was
challenging, and I struggled to adjust to the new environment and academic demands.
However, with the help of my lecturers and peers, I learned to manage my time better
and prioritize my responsibilities. I also learned to seek help when needed and not be
afraid to ask questions.

Another significant learning experience occurred during my second semester of

studies when I took a course subject that was entirely outside my comfort zone. It was a
challenging subject that required a lot of critical thinking and problem-solving. I initially
struggled to grasp the concepts, and it was frustrating. However, with the help of my
lecturer and extra effort on my part, I eventually started to understand the material. This
experience taught me the importance of perseverance and hard work.

Moreover, my participation in extracurricular activities and student organizations

which is Information Management Society (IMS) was another critical learning
experience. It taught me the importance of teamwork, leadership, and communication.

2
 I learned that everyone has different strengths and weaknesses, and by working
together, we can achieve more than we would individually. It also taught me how to
communicate effectively and respectfully with others, even when we had differing
opinions.

In addition to these experiences, I also had the opportunity to participate in

volunteering opportunities during my academic journey at UiTM. For example, I was
participated in flood relief mission in 2022 at Segamat. These experiences gave me a
glimpse into what my future career could look like and helped me gain valuable real-
world experience. They also taught me the importance of giving back to the community
and using my skills to make a positive impact.

Finally, is my experience in participating in various events at UiTM organized by

various clubs such as JPK, Persida, IMARC. An example of an event such as the futsal
competition organized by Persida when I was in semester 4. An event like this is the
most beautiful moment for me because here I spend useful time with my friends. And
this experience cannot be bought and will remain in my memory forever.

In conclusion, my personal learning experiences throughout my studies at UiTM

have taught me many valuable lessons that have shaped my perspective on life and
helped me grow both as a person and as a student. I learned the importance of time
management, seeking help, perseverance, hard work, teamwork, leadership,
communication, giving back to the community, critical thinking, problem-solving, and
attention to detail. I am grateful for these experiences and look forward to continuing to
learn and grow throughout my academic journey and beyond.
