Being a transfer student from Inti College Subang Jaya, it is a total different experience of being a student here as compared to there. Back in Malaysia, if the class starts at 8a.m, the lecture will only begin at 8.10 a.m. The reason is because in the 10 minutes time, some students will be still coming to class; in another word its the time for the students to settle down in the class. But here in Eau Claire, if the class starts at 8, it starts at 8. There is no such thing as coming in late even by a minute. Punctuality. That is the major difference between students in Eau Claire and Malaysia.
However, I did realize that both the students in Eau Claire and Malaysia have one BIG thing in common which is; both the students are very active in class participation. Students here in Eau Claire and in Malaysia are very active and responsive in class activities. This is very important in the process of learning. And to be honest, I'm glad I'm here!
