Weekly Progress
Reflection
1. Lifelong Learning
From this project, I see myself slowly improving in my workmanship of model making and start to learned about the skills on drawing orthographic drawings.
2. Discipline Specific Knowledge
I learned about anthropometry and ergonomics and how to relate it to form and space. I learned to create and work on a structure installation and understand material, quality of space, human scale, and articulation form.
3. Intrapersonal Skills
I was able to manage my time wisely and try to complete my progress for each week. I will look back my design and the progress of my model making so that I can made some improvements to it. I will make sure I manage to submit my project on time.
