INTRODUCTION
Knowledge and creativity are the key elements of success within
personal and professional career. It helps to prepare individual for gaining
success at university, which is quite beneficial for them. The present report is
based on two essential questions, that define how and why person have
developed as learner during module. Furthermore, it justifies how to
approach future challenges and expectations of university course.
How and why person have developed as a learner during this module
During class work I am able to developed myself as learner because I
have good communication and critical thinking skills which make me capable
to learn different course work. Part of being learner is trusting yourself and
finding ways to achieve personal goals. During this module, I learn how to
prepare poster and presentation. I have developed myself as learner with the
help of appropriate skills which I used at the time of class work. Presentation,
referencing, assignment, SWOT and group presentation are included in class
work (Galaczi, 2014).
By following the stages of making presentation I have developed as
learner, as it makes me able to prepare a good presentation. It is one of the
best way to show or present ideas and creativity of work, it make it easier to
engage all the people around activity area. Through creativity, there are
several paths that help me find courage to be better every day. I am a
creative thinker, that helps me power through that work and do a great job.
During this module, I have learned how to make poster and group
presentation, by following the phases of making these two things I am able
to developed myself as learner. While learning ways to make group
presentation, I have learned how to create graphs, add images and other
essential aspects. At class work, communication is very essential as it helps
to share ideas and thoughts related to each and every activity. I start to ask
certain questions to my tutor because I want to know more things which
make me able to developed my self as learner. Questioning is the best
methods to learn more things about how to prepare assignment structure

and other activities. Persona development covers many activities that
enhance awareness and determine, develop potential & talents, improve
quality of work and support to realization of aspirations.
I have developed as learner during this module because it helps in my
personal and professional career growth. Through class work, I learn how to
make citation and collect references relevant to chosen topic for further
research, while doing job as researcher. When I am writing piece of
dissertation and research report and use someone else ideas and words I
had to references them, it means that I need to include detailed data on all
sources consulted, within text and at the conclusion of my work. Throughout
this module, I have enjoyed, it has been good to develop my understanding
and knowledge in each of different fields within class work, it has allowed me
to make connections deepen my discussions later. The module as entire has
enabled, me to look further into particular aspects which are of interest to
me and those I did not have good confidence in delivering within class work
(Amershi and et.al., 2014).
I have developed as learner because I want to do my best in further, I
want to improve my performance and productivity. For example, while doing
job when my senior gives some topic to me and asked to make presentation
with good notes, I am able to perform effectively, as I know how to make it
attractive and impressive. Because developing my self as learner I can
improve my skills, knowledge and abilities. During module, I learn how to
make citation and referencing that support while making dissertation.
Citation is way I tell my readers that some materials in my work came from
relevant and appropriate sources. It also gives people knowledge and info
necessary to find that sources again, consist information about different
authors.
Reflections on how to approach further challenges & expectations of
university course
In academic career person faced different types of challenges that
affects learning abilities and work practices negatively. Communication gap

between group of students is one the most common challenge, that I will
face for further of university course. To overcome this challenge, I would like
to use my communication skills, use plain and simple language that is easy
to understand by other. Communication gap is the biggest challenge lead to
misunderstandings, with the help of keeping this skill I can overcome this
barrier and effectively build strong connections.
Time management is another further challenge, which I need to
overcome in effective manner (Ungaretti and et.al., 2015). By starting my
day with clear focus and make dynamic task list I can overcome this
challenge. Time management challenges will be overcome by making
schedule and set some boundaries. It is very important for me to manage my
time during academic career, as it helps me prioritize work, so I am able to
completed assignment on time. Good time management permits me to
accomplish my work in shorter period, which leads to more free time, that let
me take benefits of learning chances, helps me to focus on other essential
activities related to course work.
I had to develop my professional as well as personal career in
systematic manner, it's my expectation of university course. It helps to
sharpen my knowledge and develops new skills. With the help of university
course, I will be able to developed my professional career. Its keep me up to
date and guides to away from losing touch with my work niche.
CONCLUSION
From above analysis, it has been concluded that developing as learner
is quite beneficial for individual as it allows them to grow and gain success of
further career. It has been summarized that, with the help of making
schedule and divide each task, person managed their time. Communication
skills permits reducing communication gap and build good relationship
between two group of individuals.
