    I worked as a research assistant cataloguing and summarising articles from The Far East, a magazine written by the Maynooth Mission to China, with an emphasis on how missionaries learned Mandarin and their experiences in China. I worked without any hands-on supervision, requiring me to create a basic cataloguing system for the project, developing my independent problem-solving abilities. The project required taking into account the function of the magazine as both a propaganda and fundraising tool, strengthening critical thinking, organizational and reasoning skills.
