APPENDIX
I have learnt different aspects while going through the session, in these all sessions number
of aspects were covered. In the beginning of the portfolio VARK model of learning style was
taken into consideration. With this regard, different aspects of learning which were prevailing
inside were taken into consideration. It was found that while learning generally things like using
patterns, statistics, notes taking made the things more receptive and interesting too.
In the portfolio evidences the attention was paid to hike outcomes with respect to Notes
making. As it was seen that the salient learning or notes taking style was using different tools
such as by fabricating some drawings, using diagrams etc. it keeps the things memorable for
longer. For a student crating receptive structure is quite essential so with this regard there is need
to perceive its learning patter.

One of the most salient aspect learnt in the portfolio was Harvard referencing. While using any
piece of academics there is need to use such referencing. The portfolio presented range of ideas
such as how to structure it, what are some key dimensions, how it is affective etc. The Harvard
referencing style is having its great importance with respect to using it for academic purpose.
Presentation is one of the most significant component when it comes to learning. There is need to
have ability to present the learning outcomes in such a way which may create interest so in this
portfolio this segment has been accentuated. A student is supposed to bring some main things in
its presentation so can make it affective. For instance, there must be proper structure following
such as introduction, main body and conclusion so can extend its ideas in a rational manner.

Reflective writing is an art where a learner writes down the things in its own words in order to
present its side with respect to certain notion or conviction. Reflective writing gives wider
opportunity to perceive owns personality and also help to present owns side in the most effective
manner. There are multiple ways and realms where a learner may extend its reflective practise.
While writing it, there are multiple models and theories which can be taken into consideration for
making it more affective and receptive.
Test is the work where all dimensions of a learner such as where it is good or bad, where it is
having need to make further growth, what new practises can be brought into consideration for
hiking overall learning outcomes. There are range of types of these tests, which evaluate
different sides of a learner. The main aim of this segment in the portfolio has to make the
learning outcomes more drastic and favourable. It further, gives deeper insights and also explore
different realms where a learner may go for further improvement.

The portfolio also covered Reading too. For a leaner it is essential to have better understanding
of its reading. While reading the things how deeply ones can perceive and how it makes that
more affective. These all issues can be dealt with the help of good understanding and skills
pertaining to reading. For reading there are number of factors which are to be paid attention. In
this portfolio all those segments were given priority to grab as much as possible.
Machines are somehow replacing human being and paving way for their higher existence on this
planet. Now in the age of globalization, digitalization ones cannot deny the fact that in the
upcoming time machineries would be making soft way and may replace human efforts. With this

regard a range of notions were covered in the portfolio such as the future of machines and
business, how it would be placing severe challenges before human being to be competitive and
rational in the age of machinery. There are range of challenges but it can be eradicated with the
help of creativity.
One of the most interesting task which has been covered in the portfolio was to go through the
personality test. This test has made all personal segments quite rational and perceivable. Which
extended range of components of personality. Personality tests helped to know some deeper
insights which reflected personal taints which can be improved for making higher progress and
nurturing personal efficiency. As below the results of personality test are being attached they are
defining different components of personality and also driving me to improve the traits I am
lacking.

Communication is the area where a learner is supposed to have great understanding. Being a
learner having good communication is the thing which further augment the final outcomes of
learning. There are multiple types of communication and in this portfolio all key aspects were
given attention in order to work on the entire personality so can accelerate skilfulness of
personality. Here below, the picture is reflecting all those key areas which were taken into focus
for making communicational skills stronger.

Academic writing is the field where a person learns to make its writing skills impressive in order
to hike learning results. For abiding with academic writing there is need to perceive different
components such as key areas, dimensions, areas with potential of creating troubles. There must
be a clear presentation, and the entire structure must align with the academic structure so can
make the content attractive. Academic writings an art and there are some key rules which are to
be followed to make the writing skills better. The portfolio has covered these elements so can
help learners to make their learning outcomes favourable.
Creativity is the notion which can be used at all places or segments above discussed. A student or
learner is supposed to have good creativity level. It makes a person innovative and also pave way
to surge learning results. There are multiple types of ways to be creative but by taking some
practises into focus a person may kick of its creativity. A learner is supposed to make its
creativity level higher in order to be a good one when it comes to problem solving. Problems
come in form of challenges and it can only be addressed if a learner is good at creativity.
