Lecture :
Today, when we begin to start the class and mark our attendance, Mr. Vinod asked us whether all of us already completed and done with exercise 1 on the Photography group page at Facebook. He also asked us questions on which presentation/photo did we think was the most memorable and give a reason why.
After we finished watching some of the videos my classmates have done, Mr. Vinod begin to show us his top 10 most liked pictures by different photographers and their work. The photographers that he show us is;

- Raghu Rai (an Indian photographer and photojournalist)

Feedback :
Specific Feedback:
Mr. Vinod told me that I did a good attempt at the reflection and keep on improving it. He also told me that I should try to stick within the parameters of the topic being discussed and other points of reflection unrelated are also welcome to added. He even told me that whether I have any suggestion with regard to the teaching and learning experience in the class are welcomed to write about it, for example, is his delivery of the topic or presentation is too fast or too slow.
General Feedback:
Mr. Vinod told us that he is going to check out e-portfolio on Thursday. So, we have to update it by Wednesday night because some of our classmates updated it on Thursday. He even told us that if we don’t update it before Thursday, our marks will be deducted in the nearest future.
Reflection ;
Experience:
In today class, I realize that everyone has their own like and dislike. Mr. Vinod said that its okay if we criticize each other works. It's part of our learning experience and we shouldn’t take it so personally. We have to use that criticism to make our work even better. That’s why I find it very helpful and it gives me motivation to do better than before. I found out Mr. Vinod’s favorite photos are mostly simple black and white with different kind of story behind it.

Observation:
I realize that in photography industries, great pictures
come from skills. Everyone has their own judgment and it’s not wrong to criticize
someone else work. We can’t blame them,
everyone is different.
Findings:
I find that in today class, everyone has their own kind of style in a photography career. Some like landscape, some prefer still life photo and more. Doing activities together with my classmates like exchanged thoughts regarding our photos makes us all an active learner. There’s more to learn in the future and I hope I can do better than before.
