My User Manual Reflection

The first project that we did in PLP was a user manual the purpose was to answer the driving question which was ‘how do I creatively communicate who I am’. It was exciting and fun because we got to lay it out in a robot format meaning we talked in third person and had headings such as troubleshooting. The one of the things I struggled with was being honest it was hard to admit my flaws but once I did I felt better.

Another part of the user manual project was the Memoji laptop you had to but stickers on the Memoji with a laptop and the stickers were things that you liked to do/the things that are you.

So after that how did I answer the driving question I answered it by being honest on it example
