Three important things

Honestly this class helped me in ways other than I ever thought Technical Writing would help me (no offense :)). The most important part of this class, I feel, is that each person gets to look more into his or her future field. I learned a lot about what I want to do in my career these past few weeks. Through the interview and advice and information session I learned a lot about what I do, and don't, want to do in the future. Also, this class has taught me a lot about writing. Before this class I had never written a memo, which I think is very important in the professional world. By using the textbook I learned how to write in memo format, and also by all the feedback I received I learned more about the "correct" formatting for memos. Learning professional styles of writing was definitely one of the most important aspects of this semester. Lastly, I think learning how to approach a professional in one's field is definitely one of the three most important things I learned this semester. Before this class I would have never even thought of approaching anyone for advice in my future profession. Now I have information that I can use and also I have a contact for when I do start looking for jobs in a few years. This part of the class helped me both now and in the future. Lastly, writing drafts of a resume and receiving feedback on these was very important. I now know what to include in resumes and how to format these documents to show off my best talents. All of the parts of this class will help me in the future, but these are some of the most importants aspects, in my opinion.
