Self-Reflection
With the technical description I learned to do a lot on the research aspect on looking up different articles and picking and choosing the topics that I love using. It was also Interesting on searching the different components of the PlayStation 5 console. If I get to do a technical description again, I will use the skills that I gained on searching up different blueprints in different kinds of websites instead of focusing on one or two pages for research. The objectives that this assignment address are the attention to detail and if my paper is informing the reader or I am just telling them useless information.
