I understand that the school value “Expanding Our Learning Networks” means that learning should not only take place in school but outdoors too. It is important as there is much more things than we can learn in the world than just from textbooks. E.g.Some things that we learn from textbooks can be influenced by other factors that we might not be able to learn by just reading textbooks. It is good to expand our learning networks as some things that we can learn from the outside world can be used to relate to things that we learn from textbooks so it can be applied to your everyday life and we can use this knowledge to make the world a better place. In doing so, we ensure that what we learn is not just for scoring well in exams and after that get forgotten after we do not continue to study it but instead being put to good use.

Personal Reflection

I felt comfortable working in a team.However, I think I need to communicate more actively in order to share more ideas with the team.I learnt that I am not out going enough so I need to participate more actively in group discussions.I was afraid that because of my communication problems, I may not be able to share some of the ideas I have that I felt might benefit the team.But I managed to overcome them in the end by speaking more openly and clearly.
