REFLECTION

Experience
Typography is a new thing to me. I didn't know lots about Typography so it is quite difficult for me at the beginning of the module. I asked when I faced problems and I did many research so that I can do better. Through this module, I managed to gained lots of knowledge not only about Typography but also about some mindsets that are useful to design students. Overall, the module is fun to learn and explore.

Observations
My observational skills improved through this module.  After learning Typography, I will observe the types on the books, social media, etc. Every feedback is significant as others may noticed something that we didn't notice before. By that, we can learn and improve ourselves.

Findings
I put a lots of efforts on my work and completed all of them. I learned a lot from my work and throughout the module. Although I have try my best in my work, sometimes I get feedback that made me disappointed. However, we just have to take it as a reference and improved ourselves to create better designs. Its impossible for us to do everthing perfectly, just try to do our best.
