Reflection about History Project

1) What did you learn from working on the project ?

- First of all , I learnt the importance of teamwork. Without teamwork , we will not be able to complete this project. I also learnt the different ways my friends from 1E1 and 1E4 present their project work. I realized that there are plenty of useful information on the internet that we might not be able to find in the textbook .

2) What can be improved about the way the project was carried out ?

- I think that all the groups [including my group] should include more pictures in the slides so that it will not be too wordy and boring. I think that they should show their models clearly instead of just putting them aside. But overall , it was alright but I hope that next time we do not have to stay back to present our project.
