Under the teaching of Sr Dianne Kok Hui Wei, we learn to understand the economics revolving around the construction industry. We also able to obtain the cost value of certain buildings and to apply cost control mechanics to satisfy clients and their requirements by applying formulas such as the present value, future present value, etc.Through this module we further understood the significance of our roles as quantity surveyors in the project team, as we play an important part as consultants to the clients and other members of the project team.
In the assignment, we are required to complete a cost plan. We need to justify every cost data that we obtained. The assignment is difficult because we are unable to get most of the cost data from internet. Besides, we need to do tutorial question and presentation every week during tutorial class.
I have learned life long learning, thinking and problem solving skill, intra and interpersonal skill and also digital literacy during the preparation of cost plan in group assignment. I have improved my communication skills because of the group assignment. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to my lecturer, Sr Dianne for her dedication in her work and detail explanation for every lecture. She interacts a lot with all of us during class.
