Soh Chin Yi
As package 1 was involved with CCP decision and Product Specification, an area that we were familiar with from the experience obtained from FPQA and FPQAP, online discussion was comparatively less challenging compared to Package 2 where it involved a new area explored mainly on the isolation methods as well as toxin detection methods. However, our group still made it a point to meet up in school on Saturdays as we need to come up with a common agreement on matters like CCP Decision. Although it is a tiresome fact that after slogging out during the weekdays at each of our various Internship locations, meeting up to clarify doubts and uncertainty where all of our members are present gave us all a clearer picture of where we are headed in the projects. Initially as we are new to using the online discussion board, we merely used it as a platform for deciding a time and place for our meeting. However, as the workload increased and we generally get more accustomed to online discussion, our usage for the online discussion board increased. Personally I still disliked the fact that we have to check the blackboard frequently for updates, for if we do not, we will lose track of how the group have progressed.

As for self directed learning, it forms a greater portion in Package 2. I find it quite a difficult task not from searching for resources but to sift out the useful information for our project as most of the raw information found included many figures, short forms, scientific annotations and tables which required me to reread the same short paragraph to get an idea of what the writer was trying to bring forth. The more challenging ones are the toxin detection methods where their manner of explaining the principles and science behind how they carry out the tests are not easily comprehensible.
