Week 9 of our class for FSM4505 was quite tiring but still productive and enjoyable. Before the class even started, my group and I already felt exhausted because we had to be at Food 6 as early as 7 a.m. to prepare for a program that would be held the next day. Since we were busy preparing many things, we knew we might arrive slightly late to class. Thankfully, we informed Dr. Fareed earlier and asked for permission to come in a little late. Luckily, Dr. Fareed understood our situation, and we were very grateful for his consideration.
As soon as we entered the class, we immediately continued with the tasks that had been given. There was no time to relax because we needed to focus on our group work. One of the main activities for this week was brainstorming and generating ideas for our client’s website development project, which is for Apam Balik Chalok. This activity was very interesting because we could share different creative ideas with our teammates.
To make the discussion easier and more organized, we used the Canva application. Canva helped us collaborate smoothly since everyone could contribute ideas at the same time. We discussed the website storyboard together, including the design layout, colour themes, homepage arrangement, and the information that should be included on the website. Through this discussion, we learned how important teamwork and communication are when developing a website for a client.
Even though the day started with a lot of tiredness and preparation work, the class still went well. I enjoyed the brainstorming session because it allowed us to think creatively and understand our client’s needs better. Overall, Week 9 was a meaningful experience that taught us more about teamwork, creativity, and website planning in digitalisation projects.
