I did have some difficulties at the start since I was in charge of SketchUp and also it has been a long time since I haven't done it ever since I was in high school. This assignment also provided me with more knowledge about how temperature and brightness can affect thermal comfort in a space. This assignment was an interesting experience since we were working with seniors whom I have never worked with. I am very grateful that I was able to work with my seniors who are also my friends and our communication with each other was very smooth. Thus, I have achieved lifelong learning, communication skills and citizenship and global perspectives.
