Our Reflections~ Cynkauven: In this project, I think that we can learn most is how to present our work. Unfortunately, I didn’t do much of this work. Angel: I made great fun in this project. Since I was fond of Geography, I'm keen on doing this kind of projects. My group members and I recorded the condition of vehicles,had a close look at the buildings and had a chat with the local residents. When I was interviewing others,I was quiet afraid and nervous. Because some of them thought that we were annoyng,they did not want to answer our questions. But after I was more brave, I finally finished finding the informations. After this project, I have learnt the urban problems that we are facing and how we can solve it. Manyee: I have learn many things on this field study. It's hard to do the interview with the residents in Kowloon City but it is a very good chance for me to do it. Cybil: I have learn the housing and transport problems of Kowloon City. I enjoy this field study very much and it's a precious experience for me. Jolie: I 'd like to going an outing than staying in the classroom to learn.It's more fun !During the outing, I am a little bit shy when i was having a interview with a citizen in Kowloon City.Luckily,those residents were kind .i enjoy myself very much in this outing. Tim: In the project, I know that polite is very important. I know that in the interview in Kowloon City. If you being politely, most of the people would answer your questions. If you don’t, they wouldn’t answer your questions. Although they would answer you, they would not think about the questions and said ‘No, No’ for each questions. I learn a lot of things in the project. Especially the useful tings about Geog. I think this kind of learning method. It helps me to learn easily. I hope I can have more chance to learn in project. Dennis: It is good that we can go out and can see the living environment in Kowloon city. But doing interview is really difficult.
