5555! Feel anything about my subject mai ka? Any expectations?
The past week, I had 2 main experiences that impressed me and made me feel 'full' mak ka!
First, I served as one of the two representatives of the EdPEx sub-com, MHESI to offer advice to a faculty of education about its EdPEx improvement. The main rep was a university president who I admired for his wisdom, advice, and generosity of time ka.
My 'full' feelings were from:
- This faculty, led by the dean, showed their determination to continue their EdPEx journey. How? From giving numbers and one adjective!
1. They were asked to write down a number from 1-10, 10 being the highest, to these two questions.
1.1 What's your understanding about EdPEx? The numbers given were from 1-6, mostly 5 (safest number?)
1.2 How do you like EdPEx? from 5-9, mostly 9.
2. They expressed their feelings using one adjective .... how exactly did they feel about the overall session?
All were quite positive. I was really happy to hear the Dean's story with this one word, 'heartwarming' ka. He told us that he wasn't really ready for the session that morning after one university assessment earlier that week, which was stressful with much more work to do. Sitting through with us, however, made him feel more relaxed. Others felt the discussion was challenging but they had the urge to do better.
In our culture where we care so much about 'heart' (as 'passion' somehow), this quality in the senior leaders showed their sincerity and determination to move forward ka. Though this was a very small group of senior leaders, their mindsets and feelings will help them convince others, get more cooperation, and continue with increased energy ka.
Second, it was my personal 'new experience' I tried, hopefully to help delay Alzheimer's ka!
At the Wellness Clinic for Seniors, CU hospital, they offer teaching how to play Angklung -- อังกะลุง. My sister and I We laughed, thinking that we could be so awkward but decided to join in.
The one and a half hours went by quite fast and we managed to do it ok, missing a few notes kaaa! We'll continue attending the training at least twice every month....determination to do it as planned and to gain better skill ka.
