Feedbacks

Week 7
No need to include bibliography of the journal articles into the literature review. And also i should write about how it relates to my research at the begining or ending of each topic. Try to fit in all 7 critical reviews. The book should be in A5 size and the references looks interesting. I am good to go on the literature reviews but I still have to try to add in my last crtitical review. 

Week 8
Hi Ava, below is my feedback to your dissertation draft. Please make the necessary amendments for the final submission.

• Critical Discussion: Discussion was conducted with the description of how typeface work alongside other design elements to create effective print ads. These elements should be discussed further within the context of the message in the ads. The discussion would be more dynamic if survey data is included.
• Application of research: Applied accordingly. 
• Written communication skills: Able to communicate well with good writing skills. 
• Overall structure: Organised and sections are well laid out in sequence, making sense to the reader. Research Methodology section needs to be more thorough (refer to detailed comments are found in Google Docs).
• References, picture credits, appendices: Applied accordingly.
More information about the book is in the mib, in terms of what should be included in the imprint. 

Week 9
Dr Jin Chi suggested that i put relevant images into my book layout, in order to match the contents of my research. For example, under literature review i can include a picture of a person reading, under research methodology I can include a picture of a person interviewing or giving out surveys. Black and white pictures will be more suitable for my layout. I may also add some background pictures and tweak the opacity of it so. Do not forget to credit the pictures.

Week 11
I told Dr JIn Chi about my situation about my laptop and she told me to update her. I would stillbe able to turn in the pdf for turn it in.

Our task of the day was to teach the class about the 8 typographic systems, we were divided into 4 small groups to give a presentation on the topic given. Each group was assigned to present 2 typographic systems. My group got 'Grid & Modular Systems'. Following is the presentation slides of the 8 typographic systems. We get to have a Q&A session after every presentation, it was helpful and interesting to listen to other people's different opinion. Lecture 2 :  02.09.19 (Week 2) We didn't have much lectures this week in class, we were focused on showing our 8 typographic systems to Mr. Vinod and Mr. Shamsul. Mr. Vinod then contin...

  27/03/2021-05/07/2021 (Week 1 - Week 15) Yeo Ava (0340222) Design Exploration Projects Instructions Projects We were given the option to build any project we wanted based on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals for this module. By the end of the semester we would have to present one product from the project. This project is interesting as it gives us an opportunity to venture into different design applications. We were strongly urged to step out of our specialisations. After much considerations and research on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, I've decided to choose Gender Equality as my topic for the project.  Gender equality, also known as sexual equality or equality of the sexes, is the state of equal ease of access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and decision-making. We came up with our first draft of the project proposal and presented our ideas and approach to the topic. Below is my first proposal. Progression Af...
