Part 2: Learning[edit]

4. In your application, you outlined some learning questions. What did you learn from these learning questions when you implemented your project? How do you hope to use this learnings in the future? You can recall these learning questions below. (required)

You can recall these learning questions below: 1. How effectively participants can edit health related articles. 2. How well we can polish health related articles to a readable form with reliant sources. 3. How well our community can be able to benefit from these articles created and made available. 4. We will also like to learn the impact of the campaign and awareness of the project.

1. We worked so hard on making sure that the articles we focused on are well polished as we outlined the importance of health related issues. 2. As a team we have accomplished more than expected because we made sure our targeted work is well done as we provide a readable and clear articles. 3. On our previous proposal we outlined some important articles to translate and we are confident they will be of massive use to our community as they are common knowledge we lacked in our community. 4. It has been nothing but full pleasure both from our participants and editors as we have learnt a lot by coming together and working as a team to achieve our proposed goal.

5. Did anything unexpected or surprising happen when implementing your activities? This can include both positive and negative situations. What did you learn from those experiences? (required)

Honestly we were amazed by how the work turned out to be a success. Because we have faced some difficulties right from the start, starting from coordinating the editors to translate the health related articles as they are one complicated topic despite the unfamiliarity of the terms relating to health. But fortunately for us we got some help from some experienced editors and health expertise in making sure the work is a success.

6. What is your plan to share your project learnings and results with other community members? If you have already done it, describe how. (required)

We have created several groups on social media platforms and we shared flyers to help keep up with the community in case we have the opportunity to enhance more on the beautiful work we commenced.
