first class on 16 october 2021
My first impression of KOK this semester was that I was happy to have the same lecturer as last semester. This is because I really like the way the information is presented by Madam. Furthermore, the lecturer told us that we were still in the same group to do any group assignments. This makes it easier for us to communicate because we already know each other. In addition, this group I own has a deep spirit of collaboration.
Based on the first class we entered on 16/10, I have learned that communication is very important. This is because, we were instructed to appoint a new position for semester 3 but there was a slight misunderstanding when the position held was the same person while Madam had explained that the position could not be held by a person who had held the position before. Furthermore, they did not respond to us and Madam when the voting session was conducted. This forced us to re -vote. I feel very thankful that everything can be resolved in an instant despite having to vote again. From that situation, this is shows that we need to communicate with people while conducting a discussion so that misunderstandings do not happen again.
Although the situation was a bit tense, but I still feel happy because we were able to solve the problem immediately. I hope this semester I can be better than before. My weakness when speaking in public is that I am a bit less confident when speaking. Sometimes I ask myself whether my speech reached the audience or not. At the same time I am trying to improve my speaking skills by speaking alone in front of a mirror this will enhance my confident little by little.

SECOND CLASS ON 23 0CTOBER 2021
The class began with a warm greeting from Madam and of course we greeted Madam happily. This second KOK class Madam asked us to comment on the video summary given by Madam to us at OL which the video was titled "What is communication", "Communication Barriers", "Speech Purpose and Central Idea Development", "Audience Analysis" "and" Organization of speech. Five people have volunteered to present the conclusions they have made in which two of them are my teammates namely Shuva and Ci Kin. Five of them present their summaries very thoroughly and are easy to understand. Furthermore, the example they gave really stunned us. This activity opened my eyes that being a public speaker this requires having a variety of preparations.
Then, we were instructed to choose the title of the book that Madam had given us to summarize as our second task. The title our group chose is ' successful public speaking'.
Upon completion, Madam began to lecture us on the Protocol. She asked us what the protocol meant and of course we as sporting students responded quickly. Apparently to be a public speaker, we must study first about something we want to say in a ceremony. This is to prevent us from running away from the concept that we need to express. In addition, we need to speak in a language that is appropriate for the ceremony, for example, greet the audience or mention the names of VIP guests with the position that they hold to show them some respect. Day by day makes me open to delving into this public speaking. There are so many things to know about it so that we can be a very prestige public speaker.

THIRD CLASS ON 30 0CTOBER 2021
Classes started at 10.30am, we were greeted warmly. Plus, Madam who always cared about us by asking our condition.
For this class, Madam was very relaxed with us. Madam instructed us to do a self -learning by reading the slide entitled Audience Analysis that stated in OL. This is because Madam really understands the situation of students who have internet problems so we only held Webex to take attendance only. Next, we got an assignment from Madam to make a speech related to Audience Analysis. The titles given to us are free where we can choose whatever topic we are interested in as long as it is relevant to the current issue. So, I chose to take up the topic of emotional issues since these issues are often touted on social media. As a result of today’s class, Madam would like to see a draft of the individual result speeches from all of us. Then, Madam asked us to send the draft in the Whatsapps group as proof that we did the assignment given by Madam.
Through the assignments given, I got a variety of information about the emotional problems that occur nowadays. Furthermore, people state that this problem is a minor problem even though this problem involves our mental. I found out that people would accuse individuals with such emotional problems of not being good at controlling their emotions. This is very dangerous if society thinks like that. This will cause our country to be filled with news of suicides.

FOURTH CLASS ON 6 NOVEMBER 2021.
Today, Madam explained about the group assignment to us. This assignment must be completed before the end of this KOK class session on 27 November 2021. We were instructed to make a group video related to the topic of Etiquette. The video we need to do should be no longer than 20 minutes. In the assignment there are five parts that need to be commented, namely:-
(a) Methods of correct voice projection
(b) Methods of controlling and overcoming fears
(c) rules and regulations
(d) appropriateness of language
(e) taboo and obstacles
Furthermore, Madam told us that all of that could be obtained through the material that Madam had placed in the OL. Afterwards, Madam gave us the freedom to discuss with our respective group members about the assignment. My group made a discussion via Whatsapp Group. We distribute the tasks. Other than that, my group set a theme for us to do the video. It was so hilarious when we planned to do a Squid Game theme considering the drama was hotly airing. However, it is only a joke. We chose to wear formal clothes. After the discussion, one of the group members, Shuva, sent evidence by capturing the screen of our Whatsapp group conversation and then sent it to Madam.

fifth class on 13 november 2021
On 13 November 2021, we as usual started class at 10.30am. Today's class, Madam explained how to organize ideas into our speech. There are 6 types of arrangement that we can use to prepare our speech where are chronological, topical, spatial, comparative, problem solution and casual. Through that Madam explained that we are given the option to choose between the 6 types to make a speech. After completing all the descriptions of the six types of arrangements, Madam asked us to read a speech entitled Childhood Obesity. Then, Madam asked us to determine which paragraph shows the intro, body and conclusion. Madam also asked us to determine the type of speech given. And the answer to that speech is kind of problem solution. Before the class ended, Madam asked us to finish a speech for an individual assignment by choosing one of 6 types of arrangement that we already learn for today's class.
SIXTH CLASS ON 20 NOVEMBER 2021
On this date we do not have a KOK class. This is because the KOK unit has held an ONCE program themed "UUM Menghargai Ibu Dan Ayah melalui seni: Kasih Keramat Sejati". Prior to the start of the program, Madam displayed the Qr code to us as attendance on November 20, 2021. The program was held from 10 am to 12 noon. We joined the program through a live broadcast held on Facebook. Throughout the program, I cried because the message they conveyed to the audience deeply penetrated our souls. As we all know, the word parents is the most sensitive word to say especially those who have lost a parent. Furthermore, there was a group of buskers singing old -fashioned songs. The song that they sang was very suitable for the program that was implemented and enlivened the soul and body. Through the programs held, I realized that I needed to love and appreciate my parents more. I am sure my soul would be empty if I lost one of them.
SEVENTH CLASS ON 27 NOVEMBER 2021
Today's class is a bit sad. This is because the class on this date is the last class for semester A211. Throughout the KOK class, I had a lot of fun with all the classmates and also with Madam. A lot of things I have learned especially about how to be a good public speaker. So the class this time Madam gave us a break to complete all the assignments which are individual and group assignments. As proof, we need to show any evidence into the WhatsApp group that shows we are diligently completing the assignment given by Madam. In addition, Madam also asked for our opinion on the proposed activities for the next semester class as next semester we will hold face-to-face classes. Michelle has prepared a google form for us to place suggestions for activities we want to do. Finally, we ended our class with a thank you to Madam.
PEER EVALUATION
I feel so thankful that I have this very great group. This is because my group has a very high spirit of collaboration. They pay full attention to completing all tasks regardless of individual or group tasks. Also, my group has no selfish terms. We help each other. If there is a mistake from one of the group members, we will continue to reprimand and ask for it to be corrected. Sometimes we help correct if there are small mistakes. Next, we were very punctual when asked to complete their respective parts of the assignment. Honestly, this is the best group I have ever had. Moreover, we had no conflicts during the two semesters we went through. Everything we went through was just so much fun and smooth.
