TAYLOR’S GRADUATE CAPABILITIES
Intrapersonal Skill
Thinking and Problem Solving Skill
Lifelong learning
I manage oneself and be self-reliant. I have to admit that I am the type of person who is afraid and resist handicraft. When study about the brief, knowing that I have to built a toy for kids, I was totally lost and decided to give up. However, with Mr.Paul guiding me and my own perseverance throughout the assignment, I managed to come out with this toy.
I think creatively and critically in order to meet the assignment requirements. For example, I had to brainstorm ideas wheh come to the ideation part. I had to provide atleast three ideas, it did require a lot of creative and critical thiking skills. After that, I drew out a lot of sketches before finalising my final ideation to work with.
​
I learn independently. During the 'Movement Control Order' period, I am unable to meet and ask questions from my tutor through face- to - face method, therefore I did some further studies about the assignment by myself through online platforms to gain extra informations. For example, gaining ideas through Pinterest.
