Personal and Professional Development

Answer all questions

Quiz Questions

1. What do you think is the purpose of a course in Personal and Professional


Development at the tertiary level?
- The purpose of a course in Personal and Professional Development at the tertiary level is
to help you manage your own learning and growth throughout your career. This subject
also gives opportunity for students to learn about new things that we don’t usually learn
in other subjects and opens up student’s thoughts on certain topics such as mental health.

2. Why is time management an important aspect in learning?


- Time management is a very important skill that has to be mastered by everyone
especially students. Good time management allows you to accomplish more in a shorter
period of time, which leads to more free time. More free time means you can take
advantage of learning opportunities and lowers your stress.

3. List at least five (5) benefits of reading.


- One of the benefits of reading is that it reduces stress. This is because when we read, our
breathing becomes slow and we become calm. The second benefit of reading is it help us
build a better vocabulary. When we read about unknown places, our mind itself creates
the imaginative images in our heads, rather than simply saving images from small screens
in memory. Third benefit of reading is it improves focus and attention. While reading, we
concentrate on the thoughts of the story or whatever is the content of the book. We
usually read longer than we do other tasks. Reading also improves our vocabulary. When
we read an article, there will be few words and phrases that we would not understand.
This will increase our curiosity and we will try to find the meaning of it. The last benefit
of reading is that it makes you smarter.  We become more intelligent by reading books,
more interesting and appealing. By reading you will become better in communication,
you will improve your knowledge on various topics 

4. What can web-skill do to an individual?


- Web-skill improves their knowledge on web designing and they will be able to create a
full functioning website for their own or business purpose.
5. Suggest a good way of remembering things.
- One of the ways of remembering things is using highlighters. This helps to capture your
attention because the words are highlighted or underlined with colors. This is easier for
some people to memorize because some people are visual learners. Secondly, don’t
multitask when you’re trying to remember something because we can easily get
distracted with the surrounding. Lastly, write down the things that you need to memorize
because the more you write, the more it will be absorbed in your head.

6. Suggest at least five (5) qualities that interviewers look forward to in


interviewees.
- One of the qualities is confidence skill. This is important because it shows our confidence
in talking and communicating skills which is very important for our job. Secondly is
communication skill. When we attend a job interview, we need to speak clearly and use
proper language to communicate with the interviewer instead of stuttering upon your
words. The third quality that that interviewers look forward to in interviewees is
creativity as in thinking outside the box. Being able to think creatively is indeed a highly-
valued soft skill in today's job market. The next quality is to have a positive attitude.
When a candidate is enthusiastic about the job, it carries over into the workplace and into
job performance. The last quality is to be goal oriented. A strong employee is someone
who sees this new position as a challenge.

7. What benefits do effective communicative skills bring to an individual? At


least five (5).
- First of all, effective communication skills can help in building trust because of our
ability to listen embrace different points of view helps others trust that you are making
good decisions for everyone around you. Secondly, effective communication also
improves relationships, both with employees and in your personal life with friends and
family members. Thirdly, preventing or resolving problems are also one the benefits we
get from effective communicative skills. The main action is to always remain calm and
make sure all parties are heard and find a solution that is suitable for everyone involved.
Other than that, we get to create better relationship with others around us by listening and
offering feedback. Lastly, effective communication also increases productivity. With
effective communication, conflicts are resolved quickly, employees can better manage
their workload and distractions are minimized.
8. What is the importance of reflection in learning?
- Reflective learning is a way of allowing learners to step back from their learning
experience, helping them to develop critical thinking skills and, improve on future
performance by analyzing what they have learned and how far they have come. It is also
important because it helps to develop critical thinking skills which can help to improve
performance in future.

9. Provide at least five (5) suggestions for improving your learning experience.
- One of the ways of improving your learning experience is social learning. Social learning
means information sharing. The more information you share to others, the more you will
learn from them. Secondly, focus on one topic at a time. No matter how hard we try, the
brain cannot actually multitask. Besides, we should focus on the critical components first.
Work with a subject matter expert to identify the most critical information and structure
the learning experience to cover these components first. I would suggest to learn towards
a goal. Lastly, invest in temporary loss. Learning a new skill will undoubtedly result in a
period of poor performance, at first. 

10.Suggest at least five (5) ways of achieving success in life.


- One of the ways of achieving success in life is by getting rid of negative thoughts. You
must always be brave to step out of your comfort zone and try out new things. Secondly
is to get rid of distractions. Meaningless things and distractions will always be in your
way but we must learn to focus on what is the most important thing for us. Thirdly, you
must start planning your day .Fill out your daily calendar ,noting what you will, when
you will do it and most importantly how will you do it. Other than that, stop
procrastinating. Instead of putting things off for another day, you have to learn to take
action today before it’s too late. Lastly, take a break and focus on yourself. This is
important because things around us can get pretty overwhelming and chaotic. We need to
take a break and rest our mind and body.
