Overall, I think the outcome of the project is satisfying. I took a lot of time to perfect it and the process of collaborating with my partner went fine. Although lots of effort was put into this project, there certainly was room for improvement. One example is, I could have created an actual 3-D model of a battery instead of using the program Sketchup so that there is a better visual and that more effort is put in. Another example is, I could’ve added a bonus question to answer to show my understanding. In conclusion, the project was a good learning experience and I hope to use the skills of properly collaborating in a group project in the future.
