Hey all!
This class is one of the ones I have dreaded. The general education requirements for any degree. I don't like them at all. That being said it took me 6 weeks to do work that if I had actually sat down and just done it would have taken about two weeks.
For this class I had to write an essay and do a PowerPoint. For this essay, I had to analyze two pieces of art work and explain how the time period they were from influenced the later time period. This took about 1 week to look up information and write the paper. Although I say a week it was sporadically. Who wants to do home work on a Saturday when you can go to the beach! I submitted the paper and had it sent back needed revisions to meet the requirements. Once they were made the essay was accepted and I moved on to the PowePoint.
The PowerPoint is not like a standard presentation. The way they want it done is like writing an essay but putting the information on the slides. You have to choose three works, one literary and two non literary and relate them to your profession and/or degree. I choose Invictus but William Henry as my literary work, the movie BlackHat as my first non literary and The Grid - Crystal Method Remix as my third work. Once you have your works they want you to analyze them and explain the elements that are used in each of the works. After your inital review they want you to explain how this relates to your job and field of study. I did so and submited and again had a few changes that needed to be made.
The good thing about the way these are graded is that once you submit if there are changes they tell you exactly what you need to do, then resubmit and be done.
This was not a fun class for me at all. I prefer the technical classes that I can use for my job. That being said on to Scripting and Programming Foundations! Ill let you all know when I finish!
Thanks for Reading!
