The first topic in this subject is reading comprehension. We read to analyze multiple articles taken from the GAT exam. Then, we answer questions and match the topics together. This requires reading and comprehension skills as we need to understand the relationship of each sentence in the article. At first, I found it to be quite hard but with multiple class practices, I strengthen up my skills and able to do the exam more efficiently.

The ELSOs related to this topic is strategic learners since we have to understand the important details in order to connect each sentence and learn from our mistakes as well as plan to learn without wasting time because there is limited time to do the exam. Furthermore, we use innovative thinkers as we apply our skills to analyze practices and solve the questions.

Thai Language & Culture
We translated a poem from English to Thai. We have to consider the differences between both languange in order to translate the message correctly. Therefore, we have to understand each language's sentence structure and context clues for the translation to be correctly interpreted. This translation skill will be useful in our daily lives since we are exposed to other language especially English.
Translation
In this semester, we've been focusing on the use of language. This final activity was to debate in a traditional Thai music style called "Choi". The structure of Choi is similar to poem in English but with rhythm. We had to come up with each line to debate with other group based on the topics that were given. This work requires enthusiasm, creativity, and teamwork since we all need to help write each lines and sing the chorus as well.
