FEEDBACK

WEEK 3 - 15/09/2022
Rework the research that was already made from last semester. Do a few changes on the proposal.

WEEK 6 - 06/10/2022
-Cite using APA style
-Find 2 new research papers
-Cite introduction to critical review 
-Gather topics for selected articles 
-Elaborate more on what paper is about
-Give opinion on how paper is structured

WEEK 10 - 03/11/2022
As for Critical Review, the RQs ad ROs needs to be corrected. The article used were within 5 years. Description for each paper has overall understanding of 
the contents. Opinion is logical but shouldn't direct towards the end as the summary of all the papers. Each section should be accompanied by my own opinion. Overall the writing is comprehensible.

WEEK 11 - 10/10/2022
As for Assignment 4, should include the research problem in the beginning of the document. There should be a clear description of a survey and quantitative research ,supported by literature, before moving on to explaining the research approach. The justification of the products and target audience determined for the survey must be supported by literature. When defending the use of Google Form, use a more pertinent website, like Google's. The poll questions are justified, but there should be research to back them up.


REFLECTION

I learned to understand more about what interests me. I was intrigued by the idea of how packaging design works so I instantaneously chose that topic and went for it. It was quite clear as Dr. Jinchi helped me through the early process of writing the proposal for Assignment 1. She guided me on what was needed to be changed and made the path clear for me to know what I wanted to write about. I then was quite satisfied because I found the proposal being more structured than it was before. I just needed to fix a few parts. I don't often do well with reading and a lot of writing over a lengthy period of time. I feel a little overwhelmed and that there was a lot of work to be done. I was having a difficult time. I still had to complete my assignment for the critical review. I kept looking for articles, but I couldn't seem to find what I want. I constantly came across books or articles with the topic that I wanted but not quite. When independent learning week came, I took a break from the extremely exhausting activities and assignments, even if this week is equally challenging since I had to immediately collect the results of my projects at the end of the week. Overall, after doing all the assignments, it broaden my mind on how to evaluate things more thoroughly.

A comic book style animation with typography enforced. Video game mock (?)
