I'm very happy with this week. Although this week is also tough because I have to immediately collect the results of my assignments at the end of the week, but next week is an independent learning week that gives me room to breathe from the very tiring tasks. This week I also know where to go and not go blind. I am grateful to know what Mendeley is through this module because it is very useful, effective, and easy to use for this module and future tasks.

Reflection:

I am very happy in this week because it is independent learning week. I can take a few breaths to escape from heavy tasks for a while. Also this week, I'm working on an assignment for Primary Data. I chose Survey as Quantitative Data Collection Method. Apart from preparing 5W1H, I also work on survey questions. In my opinion, this task is lighter than the previous tasks. So I do it faster than any other task.

It’s Independent Learning Week

Week 9

1. No lecture today

• Do the task for Primary Data
• Watch feedback recording

Reflection:

This week, I'm a little confused about how to start because last week's work wasn't very appropriate for this task. After I saw the recorded feedback from Dr Hayati, I became more aware of what Dr Hayati meant at that time. Video recording lectures really helped me in doing this assignment. I hope in the feedback next week there is a way that I can pass. Because these weeks are approaching the end of the semester so I don't have much time.

Specific:

• Because your content is a bit technical, the general survey won't really answer your research.

General:

• Don’t forget to update it on your google drive

Week 10

1. Briefed about Primary Data (next week is the deadline)

• Completing the questionnaire
• Ask experts
• Finished the primary data task

Reflection:

This week was a bit exciting because I got to deal with a lot of experts. It’s not easy to reach out to the experts. I have contacted many experts, but not many have answered. I realized that this is the importance of a connection. Many people always say, multiply your connections when you are young. I think that is very true. I am grateful that I can complete the primary data task this week

Specific:

• Numbered your questionnaire
• You can look for an expert from the internet (e.g freelancer animator, etc)

General:

• Finished your primary data

This week, I emailed all the companies that Dr Hayati recommended. So far only one company replied to my email and responded to my questionnaire. I will try to still open my questionnaire before the end of the week.

Specific:

• Don’t close the google form first. Try to contact more on the company.

This week there is no class so it gives me more time to do my assignments. I can complete all the tasks this week. this is so relaxing and fun. I finished the report first, it took quite a long time because each section had to have its own reflection. After finishing the report, I finished the presentation slide for the recording presentation, and finally, I recorded myself using Zoom.

No class today
