Course Reflection

In the past several weeks, I've learned so many things about computers that I either didn't know before, or thought I knew but really had no idea. There were so many components to a computer that it is necessary to do a lot of research to find the right thing for the job that is needed.

I'm not going to lie, this course was a lot of work. But I don't think there is much to be done about that because every assignment had a purpose that must be covered in this course before we move forward. The only other thing I could think of doing as an alternative would be to lengthen the course slightly to give a little more time for the reflection aspect.

For almost each assignment, we needed to reflect on our process in our blog or comment on other students' work. This was necessary for some sort of "classroom discussion," but it was also time consuming given the other massive assignments. Don't get me wrong, after thinking about it, it makes sense to have that portion of the course. However, I had a hard time keeping up with the reflection part.

This was a great course and I learned a great deal about computers. I am excited that we are all now on equal footing when it comes to computers, so now the program can move forward together and we can keep learning as much as possible.

  1. I am glad to hear that you found the course beneficial. You did a great job showing your knowledge of the content. Thank you for the suggestions about course workload. Reflections are important and we need to think about how to better incorporate them. Thanks for a great class and good luck with the rest of the program.
