Through this activity I was able to asses myself on how am I as a Media Writer, and that hit me and came up with a conclusion that I am still in the process of being a media writer or let’s just say a UP student. I am still learning to cope with what is surrounding me.
This is the result of the survey:
QUALITIES OF A MEDIA WRITER
| 1. Curious or inquisitive | 1 |
| 2. Intelligent | 3 |
| 3. Industrious | 3 |
| 4. Resourceful | 2 |
| 5. Persevering | 2 |
| 6. Imaginative | 1 |
| 7. Puts premium on accuracy and truth | 2 |
| 8. Loves to read | 4 |
| 9. Interested in and loves people | 1 |
| 10. Service-oriented | 1 |
The quality that I would like to improve is the “loves to read” because I am much aware that the course that I took is more on reading and I am not fond of reading novels or articles that I am not interested in. So, I would like to enhance my reading skill if that makes sense and sharpen my vocabulary.
I am not the kind of person that already know what is being discussed, I am a slow learner and it takes me time to fully understand what is being discussed. I still need to improve myself since there is still a room for improvements and make things right.
SKILLS OF A MEDIA WRITER
| 1. Gathering data | 2 |
| 2. Validating and clarifying information | 3 |
| 3. Organizing information | 3 |
| 4. Writing clearly and effectively | 3 |
| 5. Proficiency in the operation of communication tools/devices | 1 |
The proficiency in the operation of communication tools/devices skill developed the highest since we are in the era of technologies, it plays an important role that made me excel in this form with the help of technology I got the chance to discover how these technologies work and how should I use them properly and effectively without harming other people. Since the field that I took is more on communicating with people I should have a better communicating skill.
I have a hard time organizing things, not just information but also in real life. I’m not the kind of person that’s organized with what I am doing but I’m trying my best to make things work and be organized. With regards to information, I have a hard time organizing them if what should go first, what should go next, and what should be the last.
This activity made me realize what should I focus on and what should I improve more. For me, I am still in the process of being a media writer for I lack skills that is needed to be called as a”Media Writer”.
