In Conclusion...

Overall, I've taken a lot away from this class. I've learned a lot of useful skills about the different softwares, tools, etc. The most valuable thing I have taken, however, was learning how important it is to manage time and monitor productivity in that time. I still haven't harnessed the skill of being productive (or efficient), but I feel that I will get there. This class taught me a lot about pleasing the client and meeting deadlines. Sometimes it almost took me to my breaking point, but it also made me push myself to do better and try my hardest, which isn't something that I always have to do...

I have chosen to switch my major, not because I don't like design, but because juggling two majors is just too much for me right now. I will take this knowledge that I have gained from this course and apply it to my Communication major somewhere down the road. I'm very glad that I took this course because it will be nice to tell a future employer that I not only have skills in Journalism and Communications, but I have also had a hand in Layout and Graphic Design. It's nice to be well-rounded. :)
