Week 2| Site Visit at Matilda Street

On second week, I went with my group members to propose development site at Matilda Street to collect important information and data the Integrated Project assessment. Mr. Dave Weatherall  had brief us about the site and provided measurement tools to allow us measure the existing building dimensions.

Unfortunately, we were not prepare well before the site visit and just one chance allow to visit the internal condition of the building. Firstly, the existing building layout plan had been given in the SHU blackboard, but we still running out of time focus on the dimension of existing building cause us less attention about the important safety and health, structure and the services condition of the existing building. 

After the site visit, we sharing the inspection information to cover up the important information losses, and base on the photo and video recorded to recall more detail of the proposed development site.   For the external environment of the proposed building, we decided to went second time on the site and done more inspection as we can. 

Week 1| Assignment Brief: Padlet Wall and Blogger

On first week Lecturer and seminar were introduced the Padlet wall and Blogger. The Padlet wall and Blogger require us to create a client brief presentation and reflective blog as our assignment.

The reflective blog helps us to reflect on what we had learnt. For example, the site experience and knowledge during the seminar, lecturer or discussion, review back what we left out or mistake during the development planning, reflect out why the mistake occur, and last, how to change and improve  become better. So, it is a circulation of reflection-learning-planning-action.

Padlet wall which formerly known as Well-wisher is a cool web application that facilitates us to post whatever we want on a ‘wall’. Think of it as an online multimedia scrapbook on steroids. We could choose a topic which is Integrated Project- Matilda Street, create a wall and post our proposed site description, images, videos or documents, etc. Padlet walls are free-form, meaning, we could post content on any part of the page as a presentation to brief the proposed development to our client.
