This exams were more difficult compare to the project we did. This is probably the exam because it was closed book and we had to remember everything that was taught for this module in the whole semester.

LECTURE & ONLINE LEARNING:
Reflection
Lectures delivered throughout the semester were great and engaging. It was understandable and the slides provided were very informative. The slides were useful especially while revising for the exams. Also, the mini tutorial tasks and digital badge tasks were also fun and educative.
On the other hand, the module coordinator and my tutors were always available and very helpful even out of lesson times which was the plus point during the learning process.
