In this course, we worked on and completed our capstone projects, mostly focusing on the English portion, but often including the Japanese portion as well. We did presentations numerous times, as well as conducting further research, completing our literature reviews, and conducting and compiling the results of our surveys.
My capstone project is the final culmination of all that we did in this course, and all of what I learned. You can find it here.
In the future, I hope to use my technological proficiency to facilitate my professional career, no matter the career I choose. All careers involve technology, and so the skills gained in this course will be invaluable to my future. The knowledge I gained in this course will also help me have a better eye when reading research conducted by others.
