A. Portfolio Contribution One
Some of the most important skills were taught to me at GBS in the recent past. My
perspective has shifted dramatically as a result of it. These abilities, on the other hand, are
necessary for my future schooling. Primarily, I've learnt how to make the best use of the
resources provided by the university. First and foremost, I've learnt how to use the library for
educational purposes and gain access to online resources. It gives me the opportunity to learn
about new books, journals, and educational resources. Second, this week has provided
opportunities to practise establishing plans that will result in more effective results and improved
learning (Johnsen and et. al., 2018). I also learnt how to take notes from lectures and online
resources, which is useful information to have. Finally, any academic course needs a
bibliography. It demonstrates which books and periodicals in the sector should be evaluated. The
course coordinator usually gives a brief bibliography for the course.
I did, however, learn how to create a bibliography and use it in research and assignments.
Plagiarism is a major concern for students. To avoid plagiarism, it is therefore critical to
correctly cite writings. It's critical to understand how to use material from books and periodicals
without infringing on copyrights. I've also learned how to check for plagiarism utilising a variety
of paid apps (Bader and et. al., 2019). Finally, a reference to written and explained material must
be provided. The sources of information should be clearly recognised, and citations should be
included whenever possible. I've discovered that a decent piece of writing contains enough
references and citations. It also guarantees that the material is accurate, which aids in subsequent
research and better grades. Most importantly, this week has led me to a long-term learning
environment.

It's also critical to have some talents for long-term learning that will benefit us in the actual
world. Skills that are important in both personal and academic life are prioritised heavily here.
First and foremost, students must be able to compose reflections in various forms throughout
their academic careers. Learning from practical experiences is quite beneficial. It also aids in the
comprehension of the theory and how it might be used in our daily life. In general, reflective
writing elicits students' inner sentiments and thoughts, which aids course coordinators in
determining the depth of their learning (Romeo, 2017). Communication skills are important in
