SELF REFLECTIONJACK CHUNG
This first project was really illuminating to me as I learned a lot about the topic that was given by our lecturer which is City or Local Park. There are two cases studies that were carried out, providing an informative approach to me.Illustrations were done based on photos of the respective places. I really enjoyed when I was doing the project with my group mates. I learned how to distribute the workload and communicate with one another. LETTITIA LOISFrom this constructed landscape project given by our lecturer, I learned that there are different kinds of park. It was a great experience visiting the local park in Shah Alam. I actually experienced kayaking for the first time with my group mate.Furthermore, I also learned that cooperation and communication in a group work is very important.
THERESA THIAI really enjoyed this project. It enlightened me on the many aspects of a city park. The biggest thing I discovered was the difference between a city park and urban park. I loved my group mates as they were all very cooperative.
KIMBERLEY FAYParticipating in this project I get to experience the nature in Taman Tasik Shah Alam with my group mates and also got to bond with them more. I learned more about the definition of a city park. Furthermore, I also learned to be more cooperative with my group mates and enjoyed being with them.
YAN JIEIn this assignment, I have learnt about what is a city park. Before doing this assignment, I have no idea what is a city park. So, I would like to thank Ms Shazreene and Ms Iffa for giving me this assignment to know more about city park. So now I have know more about Shah Alam Lake Garden and Birrarung Marr, Melbourne. I would also like to thank my team leader for leading us doing this assignment. This assignment have also help me knowing new friends from other states.CHOE HOONGThrough this project I have explored and did research on many local parks and found out that there are actually quite a few good parks which I never knew before this. It made me understand the interaction between nature and landscape architecture which produce a positive outcome if managed properly when they are put in place together perfectly. Ecology should be preserved well as to maintain a comfortable environment for us all to stay in
