Semester Wrap-Up

Although I took this class just as an elective I feel like it was a really worth while. Small group communication is something a person in every profession will have to use. I know that many of my classes, in both engineering and technology, have included small group project. Personally I wish that I had taken this class a lot earlier in my college career. All the topics discussed in that class I can relate to. Also after going through many job interviews I realized that topics in this class are very important to employers. In fact, many of the interviews for engineering internships I have applied for focused more on my communication skills and teamwork than my technical knowledge. Things we have learned in this class such as group dynamics, leadership, setting goals, and creativity are skills that I will use for the rest of my life. Being able to apply these skills in this class has been a great learning experience. The service learning project was a great experience, not only in group work but working with a professional organization. Overall this class is teaching topics useful to everyone in every discipline, I am really glad I chose to take it.
