INSTRUCTION


Week 2: Recap and Matrix



We were told to create a matrix based on the articles that we used for our research last semester. We had to have at least 7 articles but we were allowed to add new articles that are relevant and would help us in this research.

This is the matrix that I made in excel:


Week 3: Literature Review



After we were done with our matrix, we were told to start working on our literature review. While writing the literature review, I realized that I needed new articles to support my writing, so I edited my matrix and added new articles. 

Week 4: Methodology



I then proceeded to work on the methodology section after finishing our literature review.

Week 5: Results and Discussion



We were then asked to start with the discussion section of our draft. This is the result of my first draft: 


I was then told to review whether the content of each ‘sections’ of the literature review are similar to each other, combine them into one section if they are similar instead of separating them into different sections.

Week 6: Finalizing the Draft Dissertation


After receiving feedback last week, I made several changes to my draft again. I added the missing sections as well. We were asked to start finalizing our draft dissertation by this week.

This is the revised version:

Professional Developement Week

REFLECTIVE REPORT As this semester is my final semester, it was compulsory for me to attend  6 workshops or webinars during Professional Development Week.

Furthermore, adhering to a budget plan is critical for tracking spending prior to generating the budget. Maybank also assisted me in gaining a better understanding of some of the elements. The first is Investment Preparation, which entails self-assessment and the creation of emergency reserves while understanding risk tolerance. The second section is Steps ...

Week 1 - Week 14 Phoebe Ansel 0340165 Application Design II Final Project  INSTRUCTIONS     Final Project For our project, we had a collaboration with the business school and IT school. We were tasked to create a mobile app for the business school. They wanted to create a virtual fitting room app that would allow users to see how the clothes would fit them virtually so that wouldn't have to try them on. We were first divided into 2 groups to work on the user flow, user journey, and wireframe.  We did our work on miro: We then had a meeting with the business school students and made changes after receiving feedback from them.
