Analyze: How I organized my work
Since it was my first time using sway, first, I had to research more about the system and tools provided by sway. Afterward, I used a word document I am more familiar with to put notes and keep track of my research information, such as facts and citations. Then, after I finished my notes, I put in an organized design to my sway. Finally, I had to put it all together into my Edublog post

Assess: Process throughout the assignment

In my opinion, I am very satisfied with my work throughout this assignment. I got to know more about my element and did deeper research about it. I also got to learn how to use sway, which I think was entertaining and will be significantly efficient in future school work. I am proud of gathering information and putting them in a clear presentation, and I think I managed my time wisely, so I was able to get the assignment done well within the limited time given. I also like how my final design result came out. Overall, this assignment was fun and interesting.
