The lecturer:
He was a man with a degree in preaching. He was a usual religious study teacher
and to my surprise, he was a lot less prejudiced towards certain issues. He was calm,
probably laughed a lot and he took some notice on me (that was because I was the head of
my class). He was kind and chill and not really burning with passion. To me, it wasn’t the
perfect lecturer of religious study but I couldn’t ask less.
Conclusion and personal note:
This course didn’t challenge me enough to stimulate any real religious study in
college experience. It was the usual college course that many students would get. Just
being with the flow was enough to survive it. Perhaps we should say that we had to
manage our expectations of religious study. The course certainly wasn’t one of those
heated debate of religions. To all those who’d take this course, there wasn’t anything new
or exciting for this. Be dutiful and that’s it.

2. MPKT A (6 credits)
Background:
I had known for a very long time that this course was a mixture of philosophy, humanity,
language, and civics. I had researched it long before I was enrolled in university. I was
very interested in this course because I got to learn anything ranging from philosophy to
anthropology. Even if this course was a bit heavy, I enjoyed it wholeheartedly even from
the beginning. The course took two days and two and a half hours to complete because of
the high credit. Oh and also, the course required the students to wear batik because it was
supposedly making the students to love their nation even more.
Learning process:
This course required a rigorous approach to group activity. All the time we were only
studying in groups because the course required us to do so. There were only once in a
lifetime lecture from the lecturer that it was almost comparable to none. Most of the time
we were given stimulus questions regarding a topic of the subject and then we had to
discuss the answer with our group. For example, when we reached logics and reasoning,
we were asked to classify which sentences belonged to which reasonings. After that, we
had to present our findings to the entire class and the same went to other groups and that
would make a pretty boring presentation because we did the exact same thing. The
interesting thing was, there were almost certainly differences in between the groups. The
whole class would then discuss it and that also made the lecturer intrigued before we
came into a hard and long conclusion. The other times we were asked to sum up some
topics among our group and then we had to do a presentation with every groups presented
different topics.
