FEEDBACK





REFLECTION

Experience: This module is a continuation from the previous semester, which is Design Research Methodology. I will be honest, I was very intimidated when I first heard of the module because all I heard was "oh ya in dissertation you need to write a minimum of 7000 words", which seemed unbearable especially with the workload from other modules. It was a bit tough for me because I noticed the words would get all jumbled up the longer I write, which ends up with me repeating "shape" and "character design" for the nth time. Overall, I am just glad this module is done and I got it over with.

Observation: This module felt repetitive, not in terms of how it is set up, but more towards me feeling like I am repeating the same thing over and over again. However, I did learn a lot in this module, especially about the topic I chose which is shape language in character design.

Findings: When researching about this topic, I found a lot of the papers do overlap with each other, which makes sense considering they all cover the same topic; shape language in character design.
