LIFELONG LEARNING
THINKING & PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS
I was able put theories in terms of design principles, materiality and site analysis into practice.
I was able to learn independently and utilize the information provided effectively. Due to online learning, most of the information were found online which reduces my dependency on my lecturers and peers.
The assignments were challenging and complex which pushes me to think harder, smarter and faster. Hence, my critical thinking and creative skills were sharpened.
