The end of my 4-week challenge, learning how to drive a manual car. I started by learning how to start the car, and slowly learn how to drive in a closed environment, and slowly learned how to drive uphill, finally learned how to drive on the real-life situation. During the whole learning challenge, there are something went well, and there is something did not go well.
First by saying what did not go well. Before starting the challenge, I was super confident that I’m going to nail this challenge since I know how to drive an automatic car. My attitude causes my early failure. Second, I rely on technology, I heavily rely on conceptual knowledge from online or textbook. I thought I can easily apply what I learned from the textbook and apply it to reality. This relates to my week 1 and week 2 struggle. The best teacher is maybe the instructor, not the textbook. I also learned one of the best ways to learn is to learn from my mistake.

Second, I want to talk about what went well in the 4 weeks challenge. First, by week 2 I have set my goal and set up a learning plan before I started my week’s challenge. I do think that by setting a learning plan before actually doing it is very helpful. Second, I learned face to face learning is very helpful. Like I mentioned in what did not go well. I tried to use the online resource as my primary learning tool. toward the end, I found that the best way of learning is through face to face learning. I intergrade the face to face learning in my week3 and week 4 learning. It improves the progress of my learning.
Finally, I found that this 4 weeks learning challenge very interesting. Overall I really enjoy the whole learning experience, I’m very happy that I actually learned something. In addition, I also learned the benefits of learning using technology, and how our mind process when I learned a new skill.
