NARRATIVE REPORT

The Webinar is facilitated by the students of Bachelor of Science in Business

Administration major in Human Resource Management from HRMGT 3101 that
happened on November 18,2020, Wednesday at eight o’clock to nine o’clock in the
morning. This webinar is entitled “CONQUEST: Winning the Battles Against Thyself” it’s
about dominating the challenges of online learning through motivation. It is important for
us being a student to know and learn about how we can win the battles against
ourselves or against other people around us. We all know that we encountered many
challenges, hindrances, problems that may result from stress or we are starting to doubt
ourselves. That's why this webinar is helpful for us to be motivated and know how to
face our challenges in life.

         This year we already faced many challenges and trials that keep us stronger and
keeping up our faith in our Lord God. Those challenges are the eruption of Taal
Volcano, calamities like typhoons and the outbreak of COVID-19 which impacted us a
lot. Facing this challenges and trials in our life is not that easy because some people get
traumatized, and there are many policies because of the COVID-19 like keeping a
distance with one another, below 18 years old are not allowed to go out or go anywhere,
always wear a mask and face shield, keep an alcohol in your bag when you are going to
leave. Those are the things that we need to do for us to be safe. There are also many
people who are not able to find a job and some companies limit the number of the
workers so they need to fire some people. There is also a restriction in celebrating
birthdays, an important occasion; some people are dealing with mental and emotional
breakdowns and also some people are losing their motivation to keep going and move
forward. The students of HRMGT 3101 give us a training manual so that we can have
an idea on what will happen on the day that the webinar will start. In the training manual
there is a story about the king who decided to do a little experiment. He put a giant
boulder in the middle of the street and then the king hid near the boulder and then his
experiment started. First, there are wealthy merchants who passed by in the street, the
wealthy merchants are complaining about the giant boulder in the middle of the street
and the merchant said that the king hasn’t been maintaining the roads very well.
Second, there is a peasant walking by. The peasant is heading home with his arm full of
food for his family. The peasant noticed that there is a giant boulder in the middle of the
street so he decided to put down all his groceries and he tried to move the giant builder
and he succeeded. After that the peasant got the groceries that he bought for his family
but he noticed that there is a bag lying in the middle of the road where the giant builder
once was. He opened the bag and it is full of gold coins and there is a letter from the
king that says that it’s for him as a reward. In this story, I can say that in our journey in
life we may face many challenges, obstacles, hindrances, in achieving our goals and
dreams in life. But those things that we may encounter will keep us stronger, bolder,
motivated and determined in pursuing our goals and dreams in life. In the webinar, our
block is divided into 3 groups and in each group it consists of 14, 15 and 14 members
which has a total of 43 students. The first group is named as VALIR (Draconic Flame),
second group is named as KADITA (Ocean Goddess) and the last group named as
EUDORA (Lightning Sorceress). Before the webinar starts there is a registration, the
participants in our block are gathered in the google meet which they called as
“quarters”. In the quarters there are opening ceremonies, remarks, and overview of the
webinar. The activities that will be performed simultaneously in three different google
meet links which they called as “campus”. Once the activities are done the participants
will return to the quarters for the recognition of the winners, awarding ceremony and the
closing remarks. The members of the winning team will receive their prize worth 50
pesos load while the rest of the participants will have the chance to win a load through a
raffle draw.

         In our group we are named EUDORA (Lightning Sorceress) we are started in
Camp III. The name of the activity is the “Quest Challenge”. In this activity we have fun
and it helps us enhance our skills and our mind. The first clue is the beads, cross and
mysteries so our group came up with the word Rosary. Next is the clue word
fashionable, pairs, protective so we come up with the word Shoes and lastly the clue
word is memories, flashback and reminisce so we come up with the word Picture. We
have total points of 100 in this activity. After that we proceed to Camp II, the name of
the activity is “Knew It To Win It”. It is like we are going to guess the Gibberish word that
the facilitator will give to us and when we are able to guess the gibberish word there are
corresponding points. Each word will have 10 seconds to answer the correct word.
Some of the words that we guess are never give up, live laugh love, just do it, you only
live once and many more words. In this activity, we have a total score of 60 points. And
Lastly, we proceed to Camp I, the name of the activity is “Through Ups and Down”. This
activity helps us to improve our teamwork, increase motivation and enlighten us that our
family, friends, and someone special can help us in different ways. I enjoyed this activity
because it helps us realize that our family, friends, relatives and someone special can
help us in achieving our goals and dreams in life. Through Ups and Down is a game
inspired by the famous board game, Snake and Ladder, where the board has gridded
squares with numbers. Participants need to avoid the snakes and take shortcuts using
the ladders. Through Ups and Downs is played the same as it is but with a twist! The
board and the dice will be operated by the facilitators while participants play the game.
Ms. Areta is the one who facilitates this activity, the activity is about family, friends and
relatives. Some of the things that we need to do is to have a picture with the family, say
I love you to your parents, hug your parents and many more. In this activity we score 32
points. The total of our score is 192 points and we place 2nd in this webinar. We are so
happy and we enjoyed this webinar that the students of Bachelor of Science in Business
Administration major in Human Resource Management from HRMGT 3101 prepare for
us. This webinar has a great impact and realization to us. For me, it helps me realize
that being surrounded by the people who trust, respect and support you in everything
that you do is a big part of our life. I will be able to achieve and pursue my dreams in life
because of the people who believe in my skills and who believe in my true self. They
say that when you experience failure it doesn’t mean that you as a person are a failure
and I can say that it is true and that is one of the words that I’m holding on to. Those
failures that we have experienced can be our motivation to do better next time and be
inspired to fulfill and pursue your goals in life. Don’t give up in life, if you are
experiencing challenges, problems and hindrances in life don’t doubt yourself, just pray,
be happy, find a solution in your problem, think positive, and believe in yourself and in
our Lord God, always trust him and everything is gonna be alright.

WEBINAR CRITIQUE

The webinar that happened on Wednesday, November 18,2020 talked about the
topic with the title of “CONQUEST: Winning the Battles Against Thyself”. This topic is
very common nowadays because of the problems, challenges and hindrances that we
encountered. We faced different challenges like the eruption of Taal Volcano, calamities
like typhoons and the outbreak of COVID-19 that damage many people and many more.
As we face these challenges in our life there are many things that we need to consider
in our new normal life like always wearing a mask when we leave, wearing a face
shield, having a social distancing with the other people, and washing our hands with
soap and water or with alcohol.

         The webinar critique that was facilitated by the students of BSBA HRMGT 3101
is very helpful for us because in this school year 2020-2021 we are in online schooling,
we are just using our gadgets and internet connection so that we can be able to keep
going to fulfill our goals and dreams in life. The facilitators have a good choice in
presenting their webinar, they are organized but some of the facilitators are not
energetic like the others. The presenters are doing their best so that they can explain
and let the participants enjoy the webinar that they made. Some of the facilitators are
not energetic and they can’t engage personally with the participants. The facilitators
should have an energetic charisma so that the participants will not be bored and will
enjoy listening to them. The presentation of the facilitators of the webinar has a great
way on how they can present their topic to the participants. They are able to explain
briefly the mechanics of the activity and the things that the participants need to do. The
slides in the presentation are appropriate to the text color and the background, the text
is not that long and it is great, the facilitator was able to do their task very well. The
students of BSBA HRMGT 3101 didn’t use any video presentation, they just gave us a
training manual so that we will have an idea on what will happen in the webinar. In each
camp, the time that was allotted to answer their question is very fast, it’s okay but
sometimes we are not able to answer because we are so nervous at the time. The time
is not enough in each camp, maybe next time the facilitator will be able give enough
time for each camp so that we will not have insufficient time to enjoy it. The flow of the
webinar is good, it is well organized and some of the facilitators are energetic and have
a great charisma so that we are able to enjoy and temporarily remove our stress in
other things. They are able to make us realize that our family, friends and someone
special are very helpful for us in achieving our goals and dreams in life. We need help
from them so that we are not able to face challenges on our own. They are always there
for us even though we are not able to let them feel that we loved them and care for
them.

         Having this webinar is important in our daily life. They will make us feel that we
are not alone in facing any challenges, hindrances, problems in our journey in achieving
our goals and dreams in life. We just need to focus, respect each other, trust the
process of our Lord God, pray and believe in ourselves and in our skills. Keep achieving
your goals in life, never let anyone dull your sparkle, don’t let anyone feel that you are
not worthy, trust yourself because if you can’t trust yourself, you can’t trust other people.
Let us keep our head up, let's face it with confidence, remove all the negative thoughts,
feelings, and emotions that may let you feel down or sad. Be surrounded by the people
who trust, support and believe in you because if you are surrounded by that kind of
person you are able to pursue your goals in life, you are able to be inspired and
motivated always. Be happy in everything that you do and keep this verse in your mind
“Philippians 4:13, I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me”.
PADAYON!!!
