REFLECTIONS ON INITIAL SKILLS AUDIT

First of all, results of the skills audit were very satisfactory. The experience of undertaking Unit 1 was a wonderful one, as it was a platform for looking back at my achievements, limitations and experiences. Also it served me as a set point (or basis) for future plans, aspirations and goals. While completing the unit, I had to think of what I have achieved so far, and I have to admit looking back at my life as a whole and not just academic or 'career-wise' aspect proved to be very influencial or life changing. I think it is a very powerful tool that someone can use for personal development in alsmost all aspects of their life, from professional to social and even to a personal level.

From the assement, I have gathered that specificity is very important. This is more clear in the examples part or descriptions. One has to pick out critical information or details that would give the reader the exact details the writter is attempting to convey. This requires me to be analytical and very critical on whatever I have to write. Another important aspect is summary skills. Completing the unit reuired me to be brief and straight to the point. I assume this is of great importance because at the end, the content is all that matters but also length of the information. Both of the point boils down to focus, that is, I should be focused when writting anything. The sentences should be coherent and centered or anchored around one or two point(s).
One of the key points I came across while completing the unit, was thinking skills. After completing the unit, I now appreciate the importance of thinking before writting anything. Thinking in terms of content, length details and phrasing. I think its helps with efficiency, and it can be improved by brainstorming and making a draft before writting the final piece.  

I plan on to continue with the blog even after completion of Maths talent academy. This should help develop skills metioned above and also it will helpful and a very important life skill. Reviews would also be of great help as reviewers would hopefully give an unbiased non-critisizing feedback. Then, going through the reviews would help my writting and communication skills. This is important because, as stated ealier it helps with personal development. Also I believe the skills acquired from this exercises would greatly benefit me and be useful to my entire life.
