Reflection

Experience
     I have come across a lot of problems while doing assignments in this module, but that means I have overcome the challenges and learned more things from this class. I have learned to be more organizing when it comes to recording our works, and also the importance of learning things digitally too especially with all the softwares. Even though I'm a multimedia student, the work that I had most fun with is calligraphy, the only one without digitalizing. I guess that it's become I enjoy doing things with my own hand and doing things in computer can be very frustrating at times, but I will not avoid using it to produce works too.

Observation
     In this module, I have realised that I sometimes had troubles with time management. I wonder whether I am slow at producing an artwork, or I am not working efficient enough, maybe it's both. So I would like to improve on this weak part of mine. And also, I have noticed that everyone in our class has different strong and weak points for art and design. Sometimes, I see some people having trouble with an assignment, but their next assignment later on amazed me. 

Findings
     So, I believe that I still have long way to learn about Typography, and I don't think art and design is something that we can ever finish learning them. That's where it's exciting. I still remember what Mr.Vinod said about grades are not important than our learning. Well, it is still important but yes, I agree. I want to improve myself, and I don't think I can be perfect at everything, so I will just try my best and choose an area that I want to be expert of.
