This semester in this class has been fun. There have been 2 incidents where I have been upset because of assignments and it was the reading reflections. I was upset both times because I had to read a whole book in two days in order to get them submitted in time, completely my fault. I have enjoyed all of the assignments and believe that each and every assignment has been meaningful to the development of my personality, and creativity.
I think the most formative experience for me was the first assignment when we had to create a product out of an opportunity. For me never really thinking about things like this before it was tough trying to really scrape together what could be done to fix the need. My favorite experience I think was probably the venture concept because even though it was my longest everything just flowed and I was able to really elaborate on everything My product was about. My most proud moment probably the same as the worst moment... just getting a full book read 2 times this semester, in 2 days.
I think my mindset has developed a lot since the beginning. Instead of ignoring a lot of things, I actually see 100s of things a day as opportunities that can be fixed in some way shape or form. I have actually within this semester really settled in on what I want to do in life, and that is own my own business that will serve people in north florida with many different Metal work needs.
My recommendation to students is to check your assignments Sunday after you have completed peer reviews for the week to look ahead and make a list detailing what you will have to do for this class every week. Most times you can complete this classes assignments within 3 hours but sometimes you may have to read a book, interview people, etc. it can be tough at times. Just keep up.

I think that creating a product out of an opportunity was probably one of the most important assignments. This is what set the pace for this course. I, personally had a little bit of trouble with this one because I could not find the right opportunity. It took me a little while to figure out one that I could make a successful product out of. However, once I did figure it out my entrepreneurial mindset began to grow. I also love your picture. I think that is so funny and relatable during finals.

ReplyDeleteI think you're first paragraph describes most people with this class. You think you can do everything the day its due or the day before and then as the class goes on you realize you can't and have to adjust accordingly. And now like you said, rather than ignore things you see things in a different light and look at everything with more detail.
