A new start
Follow-up to Forums from Wei's blog
Today ,the new module start,combing the lectures and teamwork.The contents of lectures are intensive while the teamwork in the afternoon are interesting and practical. The case study can greatly activate what we learned and encourage brainstorming. I am really proud of the result of our group C for question three that is to reduce the tariff from 120% to 80% for US or European countries in car industry while cut 8% tariff on importing cashmere garments. It is the win-win situdation which is beneficial for both sides. Finally and luckily, Team D quite agree with our suggestion. That's the objective of group work. By the way, I was really impressed by the two smart African guy who devoted themselves and contributed a lot to the final answers.
The only thing I need to consider again and again is the time management since we have rather tight timetable this and next week ,almost from 9:00 to 6:30 everyday, with various of other tasks going on simultanuously. How we manage the time,making the balance between life and study, how to increase the efficiency and make full use of all the facilities and what's the specific plan for our single project and post module work are all worth thinking.

Hi Smily, there is no doubt that the course starts at a fast pace and because there is so much going on that is planned for you, it makes time management a little easier. Later on you will have many weeks without activities scheduled for you and this is when your time management skills will be put to the test. So if you spend some time now thinking about and developing your time management skills, you will find the later parts of the course easier to manage. Let me know if you need any help.
