✿ REFLECTION ✿

Throughout this module, I have developed both my research and design skills by completing a series of interconnected tasks. For Assignment 1, I conducted a literature review, developed my research methodology, collected and analyzed data, and drafted a dissertation. This process strengthened my ability to critically evaluate existing research, structure academic writing, and present findings clearly. In Assignment 2, I translated my dissertation into a visual publication, creating mood boards, designing the cover and content layout in Adobe Illustrator, and incorporating feedback from Mr. Asrizal to improve readability and consistency. Finally, the KREATE article challenged me to condense my dissertation into a concise, publication-ready paper while following strict formatting guidelines. Receiving feedback on the Findings and Discussion section taught me the importance of focusing on research questions and presenting results clearly. Overall, this module has enhanced my research, design, and academic writing skills, taught me to incorporate feedback effectively, and prepared me to communicate my work professionally both visually and in written form.
