I've really enjoyed this module as it has widen my perspective in sustainable architecture. Thanks to the helpful guidance of all the lecturers, I was able to catch up and learn all the topics in this module smoothly. I'm also very grateful for my tutor, Ms. Siti who has always so patiently guided me, provided me with help and answer my doubts even during late hours.
