Whenever I am given the option to write about anything I want, I always have trouble deciding on a topic. So, I decided to just write about a few last thoughts I have about this semester.
First, I really enjoyed our group presentations. I noticed in other classes that people who present on the first night don't return on the second to listen to others. However, I think everyone in the class was genuinely interested in the other projects. It looked like all the teams put in a lot of work and effort into making their projects creative, yet thorough. I was really impressed with the groups that did the online task packages. This is probably because technical writing is not my strongest form of writing, even though I have developed my skills quite a bit.
Based on the blogs, it seems like everyone is ready for a break. I liked most of my classes this semester, but it will be nice to focus on something besides school. I am also looking forward to Christmas and spending time with my family. Between school, work, and other obligations, I usually don't have time to just hang out with my friends and family.
I am have also enjoyed applying what we learned in class. I noticed that when I write at work, I do focus more on the readers. I thought this would make writing more complicated, but it actually makes it more simple. Now, I can just get to my main points and say what I know will be useful to my readers. I don't waste time providing information they don't need.
