During my time in this course, I have developed several behavior that allowed me to succeed in this course. I've developed the skill to multitask and be able to organize my planner in a way that allowed to be able to know when to turn in assignments as well as turn them on time. In this course, I also became more confident at approaching random strangers on the street.
There has been two occasions in which I almost gave up on doing an assignment for this course. I had an hour to turn in 5 video recordings of strangers giving their opinion on my business plan. Due to being sick, I wasn't in the greatest mood of talking to anyone. With great friends by my side, I was able to turn in my assignment . The following assignment also wanted a video recording but this time it was with me . Sick in bed, I decided to get up and stand by the wall and start recording 20 minutes before the deadline. Although it wasn't the greatest quality, I still turned in the assignment and received credit for it. With that being said, I can agree that I have developed a tenacious attitude during the last two months.
Three tips I would give a student taking this course next semester are:
- Don't give up when you have to video strangers. They aren't as intimidating as you think they are.
- Plan ahead, download your videos atlas 30 minutes before the due time
- Although an easy class, be sure to be on top of your assignments, and remember this class isn't trying to fail you
Hello Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteI can completely relate to you when it comes to what we've learned in this course. I have definitely gained the same skills as far as organization and using my planner more. I love how you reflected endurance and still completed the required assignments despite being sick and uncomfortable speaking to strangers. I am usually the type to give up in situations as such. Thank you for your tips!
Good Job,

Hey Stephanie, I can certainly relate with you on some of the things that you mentioned. Interviewing customers can be tough but once you do it a couple of times, it becomes way easier. You and I were both similar in that we share some of the advice we gave to students next semester.
