It’s hard to imagine that we have gone through 3 quarters of this course already. Unit 3 has been the most challenging unit so far but I learned a lot going through it.
Survey
When I was drafting my final report, I realized that the survey I constructed should have incorporated more questions. There are some unanswered questions and pieces of information which will be useful in bridging sections of my report. For example, I plan to email a parking company in downtown Vancouver to see if they are willing to set up a particular case of granting 24/7 access to one of their parkade nearby. If the entry to parking can be controlled by remote, there doesn’t need to be a physical parking attendant to meet our need. If the parkade is within a block radius, it can also be considered a safer parking option.
You-attitude
The evaluation of my you-attitude memo indicated a few imperatives which I have used. I need to read through the handout again. I remember reading not using imperatives in the body of my memo, but mistakenly assumed that imperatives were acceptable in introduction and summary.
Peer Review
Peer reviewing Bradley Jeffery’s final report draft was rewarding. It’s always tough to analyse other’s logistics then come up with recommendations that are in fact useful addition to his work instead of just another opinion. These suggestions have to follow his logic and flow, but also help to make up insufficiencies. I hope my peer review was indeed useful.
