"Hello everyone! On this occasion, I want to share a story about 5 ways of adaptability I have done upon joining the Bangkit 2023 program. I want to share that I joined this program because I saw the Bangkit alumni who taught me at my university. At first, I didn't want to register because I was afraid of not being able to follow the learning process and adapt to a new environment. But with my willingness to learn more about backend development, I took the courage to apply, and now I have the opportunity to learn as much as possible at Bangkit Academy 2023. Here are the 5 ways of adaptability I have done upon joining the Bangkit 2023 program:
1.Ways of interacting
In distance learning like the Bangkit program, technology is an important factor to help me communicate with other classmates and instructors. So, I will do my best to understand how to use technology properly to make my communication with others effective.
Participating in online classes is essential to build relationships with classmates and speakers. So, I try to give opinions or ask questions during class discussions (ILT, Weekly consultation). This helps me become active in class and gain a good experience.
Because I met people with different cultures, religions, personalities in Bangkit, it is best to respect these differences and avoid expressing opinions rudely or belittling others and avoid discrimination.
2.Ways of achieving
I am always ready and follow the learning process in Bangkit Academy 2023, and try to be a person who takes the initiative in learning like helping classmates who are having difficulties, discussing material that is difficult to understand, studying relevant case studies.
I learn to listen and understand others' views clearly, without making hasty decisions, and always try to understand from their point of view.
3.Ways of learning
I try to use various learning resources such as videos and articles to develop a broader understanding of the topics being studied, because I have some difficulty in understanding the material provided, especially on learning platforms such as Coursera and Skill Boost.
My mentor assigned study groups to me, and by joining this study group, I can better understand the material and exchange ideas.

I try to be open to new ideas and different perspectives. This will help me develop the ability to understand other people's perspectives and find the best solutions in complex situations.
4.Ways of working
When I am faced with working together, I will provide the support and cooperation needed to achieve our goals together.
I will always try to communicate goals, expectations, and responsibilities clearly to avoid confusion or misunderstandings.
I always learn to be flexible and open to change, knowing that in this online class, there will always be rapid changes such as schedules, material changes. Therefore, I have to be able to adapt quickly and effectively.
5.Ways of thinking
I develop critical thinking skills and evaluate information from various sources. This will help me avoid stereotypes and preconceptions that can limit my ability to adapt.
I always try to think creatively and consider various perspectives when facing complex situations.
Being a person who dares to try new things helps me overcome my fears and avoid the tendency to stay in my comfort zone.
I learn to be patient in facing difficult situations and not easily give up on achieving my goals.
"When we are able to adapt to diverse environments, we open ourselves up to learning from different experiences, developing broader perspectives, and enriching our lives with diversity. So don't be afraid to take on challenges and adapt to different situations. Who knows, it may be the first step towards greater success."
