Is it a speaker
and a never ending talk? According to Webster a seminar is a group of supervised
students doing research or advanced study, as at a university. A seminar is held for
those who want to learn more about a particular subject. Usually these seminars’
speakers are those already have achievements concerning the matter.
The seminar which was held in our class is about our subject Management. Our
speaker is our very own Prof. Elvira B. Mercado who is a very good speaker. I learned
many things about why some managers are successful and some are not, why projects
fail, what must be the characteristics of managers for them to be effective, and many
more. And especially I learned things about life because we did not focus in there alone.
We discussed about applying it in our lives. The visuals are also good because we are
able to cope up with what the speaker is discussing though it’s kind of hard for me to
read because the letters are small and I have an eye problem. Now let’s talk about the
activities we did where we are grouped into three. The first one is a brainstorming; we
are given two questions for us to answer. Second is the passing of message from one
person to another which I find very amusing because almost all the three groups didn’t
pass the right message. In this I learned that there are many factors that can affect what
you are saying and hearing. The last activity which I enjoyed most is the creation of a
human machine. Our group created a washing machine which is composed of 8
persons and is explained by our group mate very well. I enjoyed it really even though I
felt a little bit dizzy caused by going round and round. Our group won the “best human
machine” award.
Time flew very fast especially when you are enjoying what you are doing. The
three day seminar which we only took for a few hours really made our tired body and
mind due to of lack of sleep rest and relax for a while. This seminar taught us so many
things that we can use in our every lives. Though there is not enough time to discuss
everything because someone is going to use the room we still accomplished a lot.
