In this session we will meet in groups to discuss topics, exchange knowledge, share resources and approaches.resources and approaches.
In the first few weeks, when putting together my literature review, I looked up some literature in Google scholar that could help me search for the scope of keywords and organize my thoughts.

- I hesitated in identifying keywords until I went on a small search for connections between animated documentaries and other fields, and this material helped me a lot in going for the pulse of the thesis, and my main points gradually became clear


In week 7, I continued to explore the keywords identified last week. I wanted to talk about the values and effects, the prospects and potential of the field of animated documentaries.
As an animation student, I often face several problems in the animation production process, such as the complexity of the people involved and the long lead times. For animation production, the cost of creation and the revenue is an issue we must face. After sharing my views with other majors in this group exchange session, I realized that economics is a vast topic, and this part is too broad to be a sub-part of my subject. So I will not be exploring this area as a significant part of my subject.
Secondly, I realized that my knowledge of philosophy is lacking through the exchange with classmates from different countries, and I need to continue to spend much time improving my reading skills and knowledge. This exchange allowed me to hear about many exciting topics in other fields.
