INTRODUCTIONThe Research will provide a clear reflection upon on an individuals strengths andweakness related to his personal skills, academic skills and the research skills. The researchcomprises of parts where these topics will be covered. It is not possible that every individual isperfect in every task provided to him. Also, the assessment by a person of his own skills andweak points is not easy because there are also some points where an individual is unknown of hisskills and weakness (Adachi and Willoughby, 2013). So it requires a clear, thorough, and properresearch of the strengths and weak points. The research will also provide the ways to overcomethe weakness of an individual in academic and research. The purpose of this project is tounderstand where an individual is strong and where he is weak. Not only this, but what are themeasures that can be taken in order to improve the skills which will help him in the future.Academic and Research Skills are important foe an individual because it helps an individual increating understanding to create new knowledge through thinking, problem solving, analysis.TASK 1Assessment of Individual's Strengths and WeaknessEvery individual is featured with some inherent skills and qualities. Like this, it is also possiblethat he must be compiled with some weakness and dis-qualities. Understanding the strengths willhelp in moving to the direction in which the individual is good and knowing about the weaknesswill help in removing them so that they can also be made a part of individual's strengths. Aswell, Education provides us the relevance about the work or study that an individual is doing. Itprovides the ways by which an individual can enhance his knowledge. The assessment alsogives a clear idea about the weakness of the individual. I also have strengths and weaknessesregarding my own skills in academics and research. About my nature, I am very quite and calmperson. This research will also help in finding my new strengths and weakness to which I amalso unknown.Strengths:Strengths can be defined as the strong points in a person or that tasks which an individualcan perform in a good manner (Adedokun and et. al., 2013). As describing about my strength, Ithink doing things practically which provides me more clear understanding about the topic whichI am learning. With the help of practical assessment about any topic, it provides a clear reason1
regarding the in and against form of any topic. A curiosity behind knowing the reason helps ingetting the full knowledge about the topic. Oral things are not easy to remember but whensomething is done practically, it stays in my mind for a very long time. Also, it is helpful when Ihave to express the same to others, it helps me in making others to understand the same in a clearway that I had. My vocabulary in English is normal, neither good nor bad. I can speak and writeeasily while addressing or talking to a single person. My reading skills are also very good. I canpronounce well, and the most important thing is that I always read very carefully, and in a waythat it gets directly into the mind. If not in the one time than again and again in order to get themeaning of that sentence that what it wants to say (Allan and et. al., 2014). This understanding iscreated by making nots. As it is not easy to remember everything taught in the class, so I alwaysprepare notes so that the important parts I can remember easily and will also help me in myfuture for further reference.Weakness:Apart from strengths when coming to my weaknesses in Academics and research skills,they are also a lot on which I have to work and overcome from them. My weaknesses are such asspeaking upon a topic in front of the class even if I knew about that but due to low confidencelevel, I was unable to explain that and failed many times. It is my strength as well as weakness.As the communication is done in two ways, i.e., Oral and Written. My weakness in oralcommunication is that I am unable to present my views in front of the class, also when coming tothe written communication, as I already told that my English is neither good nor bad sosometimes I do not find proper wordings to complete my sentences. Apart from this, my speed ofwriting is also not good, due to this I am also unable to complete the given work in time. Analysis of Personal Weaknesses by setting SMART ObjectivesFor the improvement in my weaknesses, I am using SMART Objectives for the measurementand overcoming my weaknesses. SMART Objectives reflects many dimensions working onwhich will help an individual in overcoming its own weaknesses (Allen, 2013). I am also usingSMART Objectives to 0overcome my weaknesses in a certain period of time.SMART Objectives:S stands for Specific. It means that the goal set must be specific to the target not a general goal. Itmust have some reason ,purpose, benefit.2
