Reflection - Term I

                                                      Blissful Oasis (2023) by Nada Al Daboubi

 This term has been a bit challenging for me as I had to generate ideas for what would I like to create this term It was hard to manage all the ideas in my head for everything. Anyway,  I had to use new software that I had never tried before and a lot of my work for the project to make it seem great. Therefore I chose to design an Autism room.

To do this project I had to do a lot of research and share thoughts and experiences according to my project idea Blissful Oasis using a Blog. Blogger allows me to express myself creatively as it helps me to showcase my ideas and my research to others. Firstly, the research concept was really hard at the beginning especially using the blog as at first it gave the feeling of a big white paper and I had to fill it all without using any source that would help to do it, but with practice and knowing how to make it and how to do research correctly that I learned during this term. However, after I did all my research for my project and added it to my blog the sharing of ideas and how to use a specific software was good and easy to make, by doing this in Blogger I, learned how to organize my thoughts in an easy way with information that can help me think better same for the technical software If I forgot how to use something I always return to my blogger, for example, photoshop,wix, homesbyme etc.

I used Homesbyme to design the room which was easy to use and allows you to create 2D and 3D floor plans, and experiment with different layouts, furniture, and decoration. However, Homesbyme did not give me the full option to create the same idea that I was thinking of doing, but I think it went well for the first project. I tried to make a room that an autistic kid would like to have. I am pleased with the designed room that I did as it has a nice space and layout to navigate easily. But still, I am looking to improve it in the next term as I think that I will learn more about my subject area. 

For wix is an easy platform to create a website for my project. Easy to customize with a wide range of templates and design options to choose from to create a unique and professional-looking website and I think in this term the best thing I've learned is how to use and make a website using Wix. I am very pleased with my website outcome I customized it as I want I added the bottoms that I needed with a nice portfolio page.

However, this term was challenging and stressful for me everything was hard and sometimes I felt overwhelmed with a lot of work but I did it on time even well before the deadline it was a great term for me I've learned new things and I got to know new software and how to use them. Also, I am looking forward to the next term now as I can create new designs and there will be amazing work that I am looking forward to showcasing on my website.
