30A: Final Reflection

1. After the completion of this course, I can confidently say that I have learned a lot more than i expected. One thing that I sorta questioned in the beginning is that the the entire class is just assignments. I wasn’t sure if I would learn from the class. But I could confidently say that the assignment, maybe in the moment weren’t that helpful, but when you put them all together you could see that I started to think more and more like an entrepreneur.
2. The most formative assignment that I enjoyed the most was the reading reflections. The reason behind this is that you got to see how people went out and became entrepreneurs. This was a specific assignment where we weren’t working on our own concepts and we got to see other peoples concepts. I also enjoyed doing the peer reviews because you can’t improvement without failing and getting help from your peers to strengthen your skills.
3. I feel like this class has really helped me develop an entrepreneurial mindset. I say that because I finally learned some terms and ways to start a business and make sure your business succeeds. For example the venture concept is something that needs to be done by all entrepreneurs in that it is a good way to organize yourself and make sure you stay on track. If I didn’t take this class then I would not know what that is and therefore would not be organized in gathering my thoughts and plan.
4. To future students taking this class my one recommendation is to not take this class as a joke because this is something that you will most likely use in the future. For example I had to give an elevator pitch the other day at a career seminar. Even though it wasn’t about a specific opportunity belief it was about myself. Also I would recommend staying on track and making sure you complete all assignments to the best of your ability.
