1st class: tallest tower...

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh...

Hurm...this was the first time Miss Ummi give lecture to us. She had explained to us about the course outline for this subject and she also given us many advices to all of us. One of the advices that I remember are she encourage us to practicing doing Dhuha prayer continuously. Besides that, she also encourage us to change ourself which means hijrah and we have to istiqomah with the changes we have make. Other than that, she also ask us to buy business magazines to be updated with the current business issues. I really interested to explore more on this.


The most interesting part on the first lecture is the task given by Miss Ummi which is build the tallest tower using newspaper. We need to form a group of thirteen first. After that, we were given newspaper and we have to build the tallest tower in 15 minutes only. My group try our best to made it as fast as possible. All the group members contribute idea and effort to competing the task. Firstly, we build the basement and continue build the tower by rolling the newspaper and cellotape it. At the top of the tower we put a flag. I think that's make our group tower look different from other group...hehe


After 15 minutes, each group need to send their tower in front of the lecture hall. After that, Miss Ummi will push the tower little bit to look whether the tower is stable or not. This was the interesting part because all group excited to see which tower will collapse..haha..After that, Miss Ummi walk around to ask her students opinion on this activity.

I really love this activity. We can learn many lessons from it. Firstly, we will learn on how to cooperate well with members in a group. It was called teamwork. In a company, teamwork is a crucial in completing task and a company should have a good leader which can gives instruction and make his subordinate to follow it. We also need an effective strategy in completing task.


Finally, I really enjoy this activity. Hope Miss Ummi will always do activities that make us gain and learn something from it... :)
