The main thing that I learned for this lab report is that the ability of explaining a list of process clearly.  Before doing this project, I have trouble explaining things and dividing them into smaller categories. Because of that when I am trying to write out steps, a lot of people do not understand what I meant. After this project, I have learned to break down things one by one and make sentences simpler, so more people will understand my ideas. In addition, not only I learned to break down things, I also learned some key components of writing this kind of report, such as bolded the key terms and provided an explanation for each of them.

 

One thing that I did well on this project is that my steps are easy to understand and easy to follow. When I was trying to write my steps, I reread it many times to make sure myself, the writer understand what I wrote. Also, I tried to use simple words and simple sentences, so it is easier for people to understand.  Also, while I am doing the project, I read through the textbook and take out some of the useful tips that I can use for my own project. Additionally, in case of confusion, I bolded the key terms and every key terms is following by a description behind it. In this way, reader can follow my steps clearly, and I also provided a diagram with list of the key terms on it.

One thing I need to improve on is I have trouble finding a good diagram for the reader. Even though the diagram that I had right now is fine, it is too small, and the reader need to take a deep look in order to see what’s written on the diagram. However, no one really have time for that. Also, I have trouble controlling the length of my report. Dividing a lot of research into smaller categories is always my weakness. I have tried my best to make a reasonable length that is not too long or not too short. But I don’t think it is perfect.

For this project, I think I should get a 97. First of all, even though my project doesn’t look too long, I spend like at least 6-8 hours into this. I don’t really have time to talk about every components that a car has, so I have to do research first before doing my report to see which parts of the car is the most important among the all and which parts of the car has enough details to make reader understand what’s going on. Then after I have chosen a topic, I need to do research, and I do a lot of research in it. I have to make sure does that research make sense, I have to make sure that my research is true.  Lastly, broken down ideas is never my strengths, so I need to spend a lot of time in it, and I have to read it and rewrite it over and over again to make sure everything goes well. Lasly, I spend a lot of time on writing this reflection. I tried my best to reflect what I did well and what I needed to improve.
