Site analysis
Task
In this assignment, we were required to form a group of 5 and carry out a site analysis of our given site by lecturers, which was the library entrance. We had to observe and get to know our site very well for the site analysis assignment. Carrying out a site analysis at our site is very challenging as the library entrance is very crowded.

REFLECTION
This was the first time doing site analysis and it was very interesting. In this project, I've learned about the importance of site analysis as site analysis is the first step of every project. It was tough as we need to measure and observe the site very well, we must get to know every single thing in our site and not missing out any information. Not only that, I've learned that site analysis required a lot of teamwork as this cannot be done by one. Parts must be divided equally and then information shall be gathered in the end. I could really feel that teamwork in this project. At last, time management is very important in this assignment as well as we had to go to the site regularly for observation and also any missing informations. It was a great experience as it was something new to me and I am looking forward to learn more.
