Technical agenda

Due Thursday, June 15, at 11:59 p.m.

Your “technical agenda” should be about 700 words, composed as a narrative (paragraphs that flow, not simply questions and answers). As an alternative, you can record seven to twelve minutes of video to share your response. Please answer the following:

  1. Compared to where you started, how would you assess your knowledge of the topics we discussed in class?
  2. Did you discover any strengths you didn’t know you had?
  3. Did particular topic(s) give you trouble? What about it or them was difficult for you?
  4. Are there ways you could have gotten more out of the course? What do you wish you’d done differently?
  5. Did you discover an interest that’s new to you?
  6. Of the topics we surveyed, which held the most interest for you? What about it intrigues you?
  7. What additional knowledge would you like to gain about the topic?
  8. Can you see how the topic might fit into your career trajectory? How does it intersect with your other career interests?
  9. How will you advance your knowledge about the topic? (Be specific: name websites, training courses, books, etc.)

Please submit your response via the assignment on BruinLearn.
