| 2007-10-26 | Calvin | 9 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Prof. R.S.S. Mani, I have practiced in 5 yoga lessons about 5 years ago. My friend is good at yoga who may coach me. I also have self meditation experience at age of 12. I fear I get lost and stopped finally. I have made friends who are on my side in the discussion. My tension is relieved indeed. But problems arise when there is no or few alliance. Anyway I will practise yoga with any means. Thanks to your caring and fast response . Your student, Calvin |
| 2007-10-17 | Calvin | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Prof. R.S.S. Mani, I never read such a commentary with such realistic description. The picture you paint on roles of group discussion is vivid and 3-D. General books on group communication just say, " idea contributor", "leader", "criticizers" ,"know-all"... I am reading and re-reading your detailed reply. Mobility is the key trait of leader's soul. I know the trick now! I had attended Toastmaster workshop on group discussion. But I think your study is evidently insightful and the advice feasible. If you open class on group discussion, I will be the first one to join. I will take action and continue drill the skill of discussion until it ripens. And I will send you my latest breakthrough. |
