PLE reflection

Well, I feel like I’m more organized. I’ve made significant effort to reduce the noise in my output and perhaps it shows in my portfolio. My blog is easy to navigate which lends itself to a minimalist style, although the visual impact is busy. I appreciated the overview of terms used in graphic design as well as the review of the technology available for marketing. I also have a better understanding of the project management tools available and how they are used. I’m happy with the product of the course and feel that it was worth the time and effort required. The direct applicability of the course work to my professional field was also valuable. Thank you! See you in the Winter Term.
