What did you learn today?

What I learned today during my first training session with my new team, faculty commons, is not only how to work within a time limit but also how a project should be executed and what the expectations will be from my fellow co-workers and even the faculty who will be viewing are work every so often.

What were your challenges?

In the beginning me and some of the co-workers who were also working on different designs had a time limit and were expected to finish in time before break and we did. Later my challenges were understanding how exactly the project should be executed because i’m not used to this much freedom especially when re-designing a design. Usually the maximum freedom I’m allowed or that I allow myself is when I work on a self-initiated project at home on my own terms. But besides keeping track of time and working quick but efficiently my only challenges were the flexibility of my ideas and designs.

How did you help each other?

Me myself and my co-workers helped each other by critiquing each others work once finished which helped us expand our range of ideas and see what could work better within our designs. I believe this helped me and my co-workers because we can continue to improve our designs as we continue to work and think of ideas.
