Alright, how do i start this? Today is my first day of lesson in RCMP. The orientations were done in past three days, and there will be more orientation in Pulau Pangkor weeks later. I guess the additional orientation is to built stronger boding among the seniors and us.
Out of my expectation, the first lesson started with a patient entering the lecture theatre. We were required to ask her questions to find out the cause of her condition. She was assigned to be in the condition of Severe Dehydration and answer our questions according to the relevant signs and symptoms. Based on the questions we asked we can know how she get into this situation. Thus we had an experience of first day becoming a doctor.
After taking down all the information, we were divided into small groups to discuss furthermore on this to confirm the diagnosis. I'm fortunate to be in an active group that everyone contributes their ideas that we have to further study on. Lastly the ideas were organised into learning outcomes that we hope to find out and bring to the second discussion later on.
There was a tutor that guide us in the discussion so we can stay in the path. I'm happy that he asked questions to lead us there but not feeding us. It was a nice brainstorming session.
Although the patient is not really having the condition (fake),I feel that the whole Q &As and discussion helped us to think more critically and relate the ideas into main points.
Later on, the first lecture i attended was Anatomy. The proffesor explained so fast that we couldn't catch up taking down the notes.
The way that i'm studying now is different from my study skills earlier. In university level group study is definitely imperial, if not, you might bored to death or couldn't understand the concept well. Most importantly, they are someone to listen to your ideas.
