2019 Winter Personal Essay

GGHS 2019 Winter - Team #

The reason why I applied for this camp is because I felt that the field of interest was being investigated with the same friends, translated into English with the help of a native English teacher, and presented in English. So through this camp, I wanted to develop my English conversation skills by actively interacting with my native teacher. Also, I wanted to improve my ability to deliver information so that people can understand and have interest in the field that I researched. The subjects I chose were celebrities and historical sites in Ganghwa. Usually I thought history was a subject that memorizes, but I did not find it very interesting. So by choosing this topic, I thought I could increase my interest in history in the process of exploring it in person and organizing interesting presentations. Also, I felt that there was a lack of knowledge about the history of Ganghwado Island compared to other regions, so I chose this topic because I thought that I should learn as a student living in Ganghwado. All I knew about this topic was Lee Gyu-bo, a Goryeo best writer who lived in Ganghwa on the 1100th anniversary of Goryeo Dynasty in the first semester. Even that I did not know his detailed life story. However, during my participation in the global camp, I learned about his life story and representative works. I also learned about the purpose and characteristics of General Yang Heon-soo who defeated French troops in Jeongjoksanseong and Jeongjoksan Fortress located in Ganghwa Island. And I learned about General Eo Jae-yeon who defeated Mongolian forces in Gwangseongbo, the structural features of Gwangseongbo, and various events that took place in Gwangseongbo. Finally, I learned about the brief process of the Battle of Zacc. This is what I have learned in terms of historical knowledge. From now on, I will write about what I have learned outside of historical knowledge. First, I learned the ability to coordinate with my friends. It wasn't easy for us to decide at the beginning because we had a number of opinions when we took the whole topic and set the details. So we didn't just insist on each other's opinions, but we put together some of each other's opinions to come to a conclusion. I usually use the method of selecting one of the opinions to coordinate the opinions, so I realized that the process was different and this method could form a more colorful and interesting topic than a single one. Next, I learned the ability to solve emergency situations without being embarrassed. In fact, our team members' thinking and our teacher's intended topic were in different directions, resulting in a situation where the contents of different groups and our group overlapped. As the next day was announced, it was impossible to make a new paper and change the way it was presented. We were so embarrassed at first that we were at a loss what to do. However, we have now confirmed the changes that need to be made, and added parts that need to be added to each role and changed.So we were able to complete the paper safely and finish the presentation well. Through this, I learned that if I was faced with a crisis, I could sort out the parts that I had to solve without panic. And my role was to investigate Jeongjoksanseong and write a script for the play, and I learned that while playing my role, I knew many things that I did not know before. First of all, as I investigated and organized the events of Jeongjoksanseong's name, structure, location, and Jeongjoksanseong , I realized that the contents of the dictionary, which are difficult to understand, can clearly read if I think of words or sentences in a way that is easy for me to understand.While writing the script for the play, he thought about how to write a script that increases his transmission power, and learned to understand the contents more deeply from the standpoint of Yang Heon-soo, Eo Jae-yeon, and Lee Gyu-bo. The next thing that students want to do about the next camp is to pick a topic. Although all the topics you have chosen were interesting, students will be more interested in selecting topics that fit their career or interests, and the quality of the results will be improved. Also, I hope to have time to develop friendship between the teams.In fact, I didn't have much time to communicate with my teacher and team members because I didn't have enough time to write a paper and prepare a presentation. At the next camp, I think it would be good to have time to get closer to each other and increase unity.Lastly, I would like to write my final thoughts on this global camp.It was disappointing that many unexpected things happened during our promotion, but we learned something in our own way, and we were pleased to see the results of our efforts during the presentation. I want to participate in camp again and get a lot from this process again.
