[Reflection] Reflection on this semester

This semester, I've learned mainly 2 things.
1. Slide Design
2. Roles in group presentation.

 Slide Design:
 This semester, I've tried to challenge a new style of slide design ("new" meaning not following everything of the demonstration and the lessons given at class). I have tried my best to try to use more of "icon" based design, which I thought would be nice, theme wise.
 The first time I saw icon based presentation slides was a video archive of Facebook Keynote Presentation. I saw the beauty of having matched color schemes (in Facebooks case, it was blight blue, a color which is color-blind friendly). So, I took my time to get some inspirations of icon based presentation slide designs, and came upon a free to use icons to use. As a result, Kai and I have decided to create slides with matching color schemes, and as well as isometric icons I've found on the internet.

 Roles in group presentation:
 At the beginning of the year, we learned about different presentation types, like keynote and so on... Then, we were taught about the importance, or the meanings and the occasions of the presentations being held. Now, we have learned how a difference in the presentation type would effect how we talk, and how the visuals are different too. We were especially informed about the roles ("heart", "mouth" of the presentation) this semester.

  To sum things up, slide designs is something I will be using in the future the most, and I think I will stick with the isometric style, which I really liked.

[IDEAS] Two Types of Slide Designs

I believe that there are two types of designs for slideshows. The first design, is based on making each slide simple with images and minimum text. This method gives the viewers static image on what the speaker is talking about. The second design method I use is the "Material UI Design". Since it is a UI design, the whole design interacts to the users with geometrical and photographic elements animated and placed according to a layout. (the layout guidelines are set by Google). For example, if you were to tell a user about a new feature, this is what Material UI Design will solve the task: https://storage.googleapis.com/material-design/publish/material_v_12/assets/0B4kv-3uZbS1qQVhNbFlVdlNsOEE/engagement-featurediscovery-single-flow.mp4

[LEARNED] Writing perfect blog posts

Here is what I learned about the writing structure for your blog:  Blogs can have many styles of writing by the author. Because there are many styles for writing blogs, it is important to select and use an effective writing style. Just like writing an essay, the blog posts should have a structure. As a blogger, you want the readers to understand your idea and experience. Plus, you want the readers to get inspired in the end. Here is how the structure of an essay will help your blog post more effective. First of all, the introduction will give the readers the basic idea of your whole post. The body will let the readers understand your post. Lastly, the conclusion will give the message you wanted to give out to the readers. Plus, with a little twist, your blog post can inspire people. As you can see, by using the essay structure for your blog post, you can make an effective and inspiring blog post for your blog.
