Reflective - CAL's activities

Description

I decided to enroll into CAL with Sciences as my major. I have a burning passion for Sciences, and this has guided me to further my study in Bio Medical. I always working in the lab is very fascinating. Dealing with reagents makes me feel like a professional Scientist. Although I didn’t have the opportunity on performing an experiment during my high school life, I’m very passionate when it comes to lab work. Throughout the year in college, I have gained a lot of valuable lab experiences and this encourages me to pursue in Sciences in the future.

I feel excited and looking forward every time before entering the lab. One of the most interesting experiments I’ve performed so far in college was during Biology class. The experiment was about investigating the cell division stages of plant cells. Cell Division was one of my favourite topics in Biology since high school, I’m really interested on the changes of the cell structures and organelles during the cell division. Finally, I’m able to investigate the “live” cell division using microscope, instead of just looking at the textbook picture only. I got really amazed how all the chromosomes of the cells arranged during different stages, and we were asked to draw out what we investigated thru the microscope. I was really excited to carry out this investigation, and this makes me realized that I have something on Biology.

                                                                                           

                                                                                                                                                                               

 Evaluation

We have paired work and individual work in the lab. During pair work, I’ve learnt the importance of team work and with this, we’re able to perform the experiment more efficient. I can learn from my peers to improve myself in all aspects. During individual work, I trained myself to become a better independent learner as this allows me to allow challenging matter with confidence. Thus, I’m able to utilize the skills that I’ve gained in college to deal with real life situation in the future.

Plan

After I completed my Pre-U studies, I’m planning to further my studies in Australia as most universities in Australia have good foundation in Sciences. This is to ensure that I’m able to cope with the heavy load of BioMed stress. Even if after I’ve completed my studies, I hope I can still in contact with Sciences in my work in the future. Thus, I could apply all the knowledge I’ve gained during the studies, to have a better achievement.
