CLASS ON 16 APRIL 2022
Class on that date, Madam has greeted us enthusiastically. We started our KOK activities by electing our chairman and other positions. Selection was done through a virtual ballot where Michelle provided google forms and google sheets to our class so we could nominate who we felt the person was responsible for. The condition for nominating such a name is that we cannot put up a name that has already taken over from the previous semester. Everything went smoothly without any misunderstandings. Upon completion, Mrs. explained to us about the syllabus we needed to follow. Madam told us that this semester we were allowed to do any off -campus programs. This program is not mandatory for us. So, we decided not to do the program. Finally, we discuss the activities we want to do throughout this KOK week.
CLASS ON 23 APRIL 2022
Class on that date, we have learned about persuasive speech. Madam shared material on persuasive speech at OL. There are 8 materials that Madam has prepared where there are also 2 videos that we need to watch and understand. We have to prepare mind-map about persuasive speech. After that, we were assigned to discuss and understand together with our group members about persuasive speech. In addition, we are also instructed to share our understanding to Madam and friends. I really like my group. This is because, from semester 2 onwards we always show the nature of our cooperation in completing the work. Before the end of the class, Madam asked us to prepare a persuasive speech individually. We are free to choose the various titles we want as long as they are not the same as other members. Finally, Madam ended our class that week by saying Eid Mubarak.
CLASS ON 14 MAY 2022
Class on this date, Madam assigned us to do a group presentation related to Persuasion. My group i.e. group 2 was set by Madam to make a presentation on Theories Of Persuasion. The title we got was the same as group 1. We discussed using the webex which Madam had provided. This makes it easy for us all to talk. Furthermore, Madam has also placed material for us to refer to in OL. The material we obtained was in PDF format. Madam instructed us to do a skimming and beautiful technique to extract the keywords found in the reference. Based on that reference, we found that there are 6 contents that we need to present namely :-
1) Cognitive Dissonance Theory
2) Elaboration Likelihood Model
3) Social Judgment Theory
4) Persuasion Defined
5) Narrative Paradigm
6) Summary
We divide the task fairly and equitably. Finally, our group managed to complete the given task in 30 minutes. But our group did not have time to present due to very limited time.

CLASS ON 21 MAY 2022
Madam greeted us with joy. We had a 30 -minute chat session. After we finished chatting, Mrs. told us today there were 2 assignments. The first task, we need to discuss JOKO WIDODO's Speech. We need to identify the techniques and strategies that Joko Widodo has used in his speech. We do this task in groups. My group worked together in completing the assignment. The time given by Madam to us was for 30 minutes. After that, our group which is group 2 is the first group that will present the results of our discussions. Thanks to Shuva for voluntarily she wanted to present the results of our discussion. Thankfully, our group was able to make a clear and excellent presentation. After the presentation by each group, we were given the second task of finding the Raya song and then translating the lyrics into English. Not only that, we also had to sing the song in English. My group chose a song titled “Suasana Hari Raya” sung by Anuar Zain and Ellina. We sang the song together. We also laughed at each other because we felt that we sang the song not at the right tempo.
CLASS ON 28 MAY 2022
Our activity that day was we were asked to find a movie or drama that we could recommend to all Group E public speaking. We were asked to discuss together with the members of each group first before presenting the movie or drama to be recommended. My group plans to suggest they watch the drama " Sky Castle". Natasha voluntarily wanted to present this drama to Madam and all members of Group E. This drama is from Korea. The reason we chose this drama is because this drama plays a lot on feelings and gives lessons to the audience where the selfish attitude of parents causes their children to have mental health problems. Their children suffer from mental health due to their parents' insistence to study hard in order to obtain the highest examination marks compared to the students in their school. Then, the presentation of dramas and movies only had time to be presented until group 6 only. This is because our time is very limited which is from 12.30 noon to 2.30 pm. Madam asked us to continue the presentation at the next class. We ended our class with suggestions of movies and dramas that played in our minds to watch. The movies and dramas suggested from Group 1 to Group 6 are very interesting and have various plot twists. So, I figured that I would watch the movies and dramas suggested by them in case they asked if I wanted to watch or not.
CLASS ON 5 JUNE 2022
Mrs. asked us to resume the Film and Drama presentation which each group would like to recommend to all Group E. The groups that need to be presented that day are Group 7 to Group 9. One of the groups suggested us to watch a ghost genre film. At first we were scared to listen to their presentations. Suddenly we felt the movie wasn’t horror. This is because the film has elements of humor. The title of the movie they recommend is Pee Mak. Honestly, the movie is hilarious even though it’s horror. Afterwards, Madam asked us to discuss among the members of Group E as the next class was our last class. We were instructed to make our farewell ceremony. We discussed the tentative of our council. We also distribute bureaus by group fairly. My group which is Group 2 has been selected to be the joint activity bureau along with Group 9. In addition, we also discussed the food that we will bring for the event. We plan to make a potluck where each group has to bring food and drinks to the event. The discussion we had was very professional without any objections or disputes. Finally, we ended the discussion right at 2.30pm.
CLASS ON 11 JUNE 2022
June 11, 2022 is a date I will remember forever. why? Because that date was the date we first met after 3 semesters we took this class online. I felt very happy then. I was able to meet and talk to them face to face especially my group which is Group 2. My group has been appointed as the Activity Bureau. So our group planned to be present at TM Hall an hour earlier. Before that, me, Michelle, Natasha and Afiqah went to Cafe Proton first to buy some kind of cake to be served to the Group E public speaking club. We arrived at Tm Hall at 11am. We made preparations before our event started. Our group leader CK Lam gave a little explanation of the game to Group 9 so that what we planned could go as planned. After each group made preparations, Mrs. Aida arrived at the TM Hall. We greeted Mrs. happily as this was the first time we met together. Before we started the activity, our leader Fazril asked us all to eat first so that everyone was energetic to play thr game.
After 15 minutes, we started our first game activity which was first impressions. The game asked us to write down all of our responses to the individuals we met. We all wrote our answers on a piece of paper that we pasted on the back of our bodies. Then followed by the second game which is werewolf. The game has 5 killers, 1 investigator and 2 Doctors. The others are villagers. At the end of the game, 5 selected assassins win the game for failing to find the real killer. The last game is Music Chair. The game was won by Maisarah. He has managed to grab a seat in the finals.
At the end of the ceremony, we invited Mrs. Aida to deliver a farewell speech followed by our Chairman, Fazril. Mrs. Aida's words touched our hearts deeply. This is because we remembered the situation when we first held the KOK class. Subconsciously today is the last day we hold a KOK class. Time passed so fast, unknowingly we managed to get through it for 4 semesters. While Fazril's speech is very inspiring. His speech emphasized a lot about being an introvert because he was an instrovert. In the speech, Fazril also said he did not think he made much improvement especially when speaking in front of many people. The intonation and facial expressions used are also very appropriate when speaking.
