ENG 314 - the last class

Responses from the last ENG 314 class



I was unable to participate in our last virtual class, so I am posting my responses to the questions posed in class.
1) What surprised me most about the writing/communicating I can expect to do in my discipline: the variety of types of communication used and different degrees of technicality used depending on the audience.
2) How will the way I look for a job differ from what I would have done before this class: I will put more effort into cultivating contacts, create a “network”, get advice in re: the best courses to take in my last 3or 4 semesters at Clemson, and really focus on what I can offer an employer, i.e.: “What I can do for you”.
3) How might I use the collaborative project to help demonstrate my qualifications to a potential employer: I would emphasize mp familiarity with Power Point, my willingness to work as a team (especially under time constraints), and my ability to communicate on a collaborative project from a distance via technology.
