30A – Final Reflection

1.     I just read through my entire blog post and it is crazy to me how it was just a few months ago that I started my blog, it honestly feels like I started it years ago. It makes me sad that this class is over now, but it was definitely a great experience and it was nice to see and reflect on how much I have learned and grown as a student and as a person. I have definitely enjoyed some assignments more than others, and had highs and lows throughout the semester, but overall, I am happy with how everything turned out.

2.     I can easily say my favorite blog post was the second post which was making the bug list. I thought this was extremely fun and eye opening for me to make to see how many things actually bother me. I didn’t know I had nearly that many pet peeves. I also really enjoyed reading other people’s bug list post to see what bothered them. Super fun idea! The most informative assignments were definitely the elevator pitches. By doing it three different times I was greatly able to improve my ability to speak in front of a camera which will definitely be useful later in life!

3.     I do not think I have an entrepreneurial mindset as I am not an entrepreneur and I do not think I ever will be as that is just not who I am. I will however say I have moved MUCH closer to having an entrepreneurial mindset compared to how I was when I started the course!

4.     My biggest pieces of recommendation to be successful in this class and to get the most out of it are simple but EXTREMELY useful and will make all the difference in the world!
1.     Keep an open-mind!!!!
2.     Do not let anyone’s feedback get you down, they are only trying to help!
3.     MOST IMPORTANTLY: Keep an organized calendar of when every assignment and cupcake is due so you don’t miss anything!


How I’m feeling that we had to finish the semester at home: enjoy!

  2. Hey Aaron,
    I really agree with you on keeping a calendar for this class. It's so easy to forget a lot of the assignments, especially due to the unusual grading schedule and assignments. The bug list was also my favorite assignment, especially because it made me think outside the box about what really bothers me. Really good final reflection post.

    I completely agree that this journey feels like it started so long ago. Compared to the beginning it feels like I am a blogging veteran now. While I am an not in total agreeance about your favorite post I can see why you chose the Bug List and can agree that it really helped us in beginning our blog journeys. Great work on not only this post but all the other ones as well.

  4. Aaron,

    I think you gave great advice to potential future students, and I appreciate how you acknowledged that while this course may have brought you closer to an entrepreneur's mindset, you just aren't that person. That is very valuable and shows that you really got the most out of this class. great post and I didn't particularly like the bug list but I am glad that you did!
