Among the qualities listed, which quality would be the one that you need to work on the most? Why?
I think the quality I need to work on is intelligence since I am not that knowledgeable about most things in the field of communication, especially media writing. I should also be more industrious in reading and improving my writing skills.
Given your ratings, what keeps you from getting that 1.00 self-rating?
I believe that I have a lot of room for improvement. I am not that experienced in media writing and I have relatively poor communication skills that I need to work on.
Among the skills listed, which skill have you developed the highest competency? What contributed to the development of that skill?
I think I have developed my validating and clarifying information skills. Since fake news has been rampant, especially in social media, I have learned to check other sources of information by researching information from legitimate sites.
Among the skills listed, which skill would be the one that you need to work on the most to develop? Why?
I would have to improve my writing skills as it is an important skill in becoming a development communicator. Writing in a clear and concise manner will help me in accomplishing the activities that will be tasked in the future.
As of now, I do not see myself as an efficient media writer as I lack the skills and qualities that constitutes a media writer. But, I do believe that being aware of my weaknesses will help me in improving my writing. The only thing left for me to do is to push forward.
