From Challenges to Change: A Quarter of Growth

During the Third Quarter, I gained many learnings and discoveries that helped me grow academically and personally. I improved my skills in writing reflections, blog posts, and analytical tasks, especially when connecting lessons to real-life issues such as culture, identity, and social awareness. I also learned how to properly use references and cite sources, which helped me become more responsible and credible in my academic work. Overall, this quarter taught me the importance of understanding topics deeply rather than just completing requirements.

Along the way, I encountered several challenges that

tested my patience and time-management skills. Some tasks were difficult because of limited time, overlapping deadlines, and moments when I felt unsure about how to organize my ideas clearly. There were also times when finding reliable sources and images that matched the topic became challenging, especially when proper citation was required.

To address these challenges, I learned to manage my time better by planning tasks ahead and working step by step. I asked for guidance when I felt confused and used trusted online resources to support my outputs. I also practiced revising my work to improve clarity and accuracy, which helped me become more confident in completing my requirements despite difficulties.

Moving on, I will continue to improve my discipline, creativity, and responsibility as a learner. I aim to be more proactive in researching, organizing my thoughts, and submitting quality outputs on time. I will also apply the lessons I learned this quarter to become a more confident student who is ready to face future academic challenges with determination and growth.
