Overview

What Did I Learn?
Through this project, I was entrusted with the role of being team leader. It wasn't an easy task initially as I didn't have much experience on it. However, from this project, I learned several key things, including how to:
• Oversaw the project's advancement to match the established objectives.
• Ensured the active involvement of team members in all activities.
• Led and initiated productive discussions.
• Ensured team members have a comprehensive understanding of the project thoroughly.
Aside from being the leader, I also contributed to maintain the quality of project outputs by proofreading and editing magazine content.

Approval: Once everything was in place, the next step was to submit a proposal to the lecturer. This part wasn't easy, as our team had to undergo the revisions. After discussions and corrections, our project finally received an approval.
