REFLECTION

Embarking on this module felt like dipping my toes into uncharted waters – my initiation into the realm of research. Intrigued by the world of health apps, I set out to unravel the mysteries of their user-friendliness. It was akin to navigating through a haystack to find a needle – the challenge lay in obtaining crystal-clear and detailed reasons to support my exploration.

In the journey of discovery, it became apparent that securing concrete evidence was no walk in the park. The effort, however, proved to be a worthwhile venture. Surveys emerged as the unsung heroes but presented a puzzle of their own. A myriad of diverse responses unfolded, and I found myself playing the role of a puzzle master, piecing together the mosaic to draw meaningful conclusions.

Despite the twists and turns, this module transformed into a surprisingly enjoyable adventure. It exercised my critical thinking muscles, offering a mix of challenge and satisfaction. What began as a personal exploration soon revealed a broader impact – the potential to contribute not only to my own understanding but also to the wider community.

In simpler terms, it was like trying out a new video game. At first, a bit confusing, but as you navigate through levels, and solve puzzles, it gets kinda of fun. Imagine searching for something small in a big messy room – that’s how it felt digging for clear and detailed reasons to support what I was looking into.

Along the way, getting proof for my findings wasn’t as easy as hitting a "search" button, but sorting through survey answers felt a bit like figuring out a big jigsaw puzzle. Lots of pieces, and my job was to fit them together to make sense of it all.

Surprisingly, this research thing turned out to be a bit of a hidden gem. It got me thinking in ways I hadn’t before, and it looks like the stuff I found could actually help out not just me, but maybe others too.
