Reflection for Digital Portfolio

The first moment Sir Ghazali Bunari assigned the class to do this digital portfolio, the feelings that I had was excited. Yes, I was excited to be assigned to do such task. A digital portfolio, where we are free to create our very own portfolio to market ourselves to potential employers out there as creative as we can? Do whatever you want? Are you serious? Yes, that was in my mind but to be honest when the time flies, and the due date plus the presentation day is nearing, I was like, “Why oh why do we need to create a digital portfolio? Such nuisance, you know!”

So here I sit in front of my laptop and trying to reflect the task that I had finished last Tuesday (18th December 2012), remembering back what inputs and knowledge had I gained during finishing and completing this digital portfolio. There are several benefits that I gained though, and first, I must say that I am convinced now with my ability to create cute and pretty slides. I can play with colours, mix here and there and voila, a very cute presentation slides indeed! So proud if you wanted to know the truth. Even though there are several classmates who had gone all out and produce their very own digital portfolio using Prezi software, flash and videos, but I still want to say that my PowerPoint is not that bad at all. But still, Kudos to everyone because we can produce a unique and one of a kind portfolio, compared to the bland resume.

Other than that, I also learned during the presentation of this digital portfolio about the art of presenting what is more important rather than presenting the whole slides. Being given only 5 minutes to present, it was quite a challenge because normally the students would stand at the front and talk about every single things written on the slide thus the time given was not sufficient enough. Therefore, from the 5 minutes given, I know what to present, what to explain and what to elaborate further.

In conclusion, this digital portfolio had given me a new experience and knowledge that can be used for the benefits of the future! YAY! :D
