My familiarity of the design process has been extended and I have found this semester to be a rewarding and worthwhile experience where I have been challenged and have begun to have a clearer understanding of the different approaches and techniques used in design and architecture. The exercises have been valuable with ongoing weekly research benefiting us with our independence in following up queries on our own and improving our critical thinking. The experience of presenting in front of a group of people in the design classes is an area that I needed to improve on and something that I have appreciated.
