Evaluation
My main idea for evaluation is to send/share my project to others to ask for their thoughts and
ideas about my project, and use their feedback to show if my project was successfulor not and if it
appealed to my audience. As well as this I reflect daily on my work, which is also helps me see if
my project is doing well.
