42 === Personal Reflection ===
43 I really enjoyed working with all team members. In the process of working on this project, I met some really great people! However, a group of six people can become a little difficult to work with since the tasks need to be split amongst many people. We met up at least once a week where we mainly came up with different ideas about the project and divided tasks. In the first few weeks we focused on just the wiki. When looking back, we should have also started working with the robot earlier as it got really busy in the last two weeks. Nonetheless, we managed to complete the project and I really enjoyed the entire process.

45 Through this experience, I have also gained a little more knowledge about dementia. I have always heard about it, but never knew how the persons really felt. An interest in this topic and field made reading those papers a lot more interesting. It was also really fun working with a humanoid robot. It was a little challenging to think of a natural flowing dialogue while also keeping it simple enough so that the robot can understand and reply accordingly. There is still a lot more improvement that can be done in that area, and hopefully can be something to look forward to working on in the future.
