Assignment 1

Week 1

LESSON OF THE WEEK

This week marked the beginning of the semester and our very first class for this module. Since it was also our first time having class with Dr. Alshaimaa, she began with a short self-introduction and asked us to introduce ourselves as well, so she could remember our names. After this small ice-breaking session, she introduced the overall module and explained the assignments we will be working on throughout the semester.

Because the software we will be using is licensed, all assignments and weekly progress tasks can only be completed in class using the university’s facilities.

MISSION OF THE WEEK

As this was only the first week, there were no assignments yet. Instead, we completed the Week 1 weekly task during class. The task was to explore the software Lectra and familiarize ourselves with its tools. Since this was our first time using it, Dr. Alshaimaa also recorded several online sessions on MyTimes to guide us step by step.

Overall, I felt quite excited about this module. It seems interesting, and I think digital pattern-making will be much more convenient than hand-drawn methods. Unlike manual drafting, we won’t need to trace patterns onto mahjong paper or worry about measurement errors and crooked lines. I hope I can learn and master this software well so that I can apply it effectively in my future assignments.
