Final Reflection

I would not say that I could pinpoint any assignment to be the most formative experience. I would say that doing the interviews helped me to get new ideas and redefined what I needed to create and look for. It also helped me to feel comfortable talking about my idea and gave me insight on the best ways to explain it to someone.

The experience I will remember years from now is the absurdity of having to do three of these assignments a week and a cupcake quiz. It was hard enough to be able to complete three assignments, but some of the assignments needed to be planned for and would not be possible to complete last minute. In one of my previous posts, I noted that planning is essential for this course. The cupcakes did not seem like a good way to enhance learning in this class. They focused more on specific moments or topics covered but did not seem to focus on the overall takeaways from Dr. Pryor's lectures.

My most joyous experience is the one I am having right now knowing that this is going to be my last post for this class. This class requires a lot of writing and I am glad that I was able to make it this far.

I am proud of completing as many assignments as I did. I had no intention of doing every single one and I didn’t. I am proud that I should still be able to get an A in this course knowing that I wasn’t going to have to do every single assignment.

I think that the entrepreneurial mindset has become real for me. I am constantly thinking about the way things are done around me and how I can make it better for the people who need it! It has caused me to think about things from all perspectives when making decisions about how to do things.

One recommendation I would make to future students is to always plan and view assignments early so that you know what you will need to do in order to get it done on time. In order to foster this mindset, do not be afraid to come out of your comfort zone and feel embarrassed. Always have a willingness to try!
