REFLECTIONS

Experience 
The online classes are different from the physical classes of other modules in terms of time. The briefings and feedback sessions are short and straightforward. I can finish up tasks right after lectures. This allows me to progress quicker so I can start assignments from my other modules before being - or during, overwhelmed.

Observation
Being a first year, I observed that I learned better when examples of previous students' work were shown during lectures. It provides a visual guide on how my final product should look like. Without them, I would be more doubtful of my progress.

Findings
I found myself to be doubtful of my progress because I've seen my classmates' progress before and most of the time, they're already developing their designs whilst I'm falling behind in sketching. Nevertheless, I'm to glad to say that I was able to complete my submissions on time.
