1. LL.1 Write a brief description of where your knowledge on your topic was limited and
what actions you took to address these limitations. Consider: What was the limitation(s),
what actions you took to address said limitation(s), and what impact those actions had.
I started this course harbouring some knowledge on design in engineering from an IGCSE
course called D&T (Design and technology),which I had done some years back. There was a
lot of similarities I could see between both courses such as the concepts of brainstorming,
planning and journaling, however in most cases in D&T we had to design based on a problem
statement without having to build the prototype. So I’d say that was where I was lacking it at
first. The thought of having to build a prototype
2. IT.1 Describe the role you took in your team this semester. How did you participate in
group activities, decision-making, or project planning? Consider: What happened, what
actions you took, and what impact those actions had.

3. IT.1 With the challenges and successes you encountered in ENG 1430, how do you
intend to improve your teamwork skills as you look ahead to future team-based courses?
Consider: What happened, what actions you will take, and what impact those actions will
have.
4. EE.3 How has your involvement in this client-led project impacted your thinking about
ethics and equity in engineering design? This might include considerations for
sustainability (people, planet, prosperity), accessibility, public safety, etc.
