This class has been one of the classes I always learned from. There would always be something to take back with me after every single class. Initially, I was very conscious about my writing. But after being in this class, I got more confident with my writing and presentation skills. The class was fun, motivating, and pushed me out of my comfort zone. Compared to last quarter, this quarter was a little more challenging considering the fact that we had to write a research paper towards the end. This exercise of researching, analyzing and presenting facts and your point of view, I feel, has equipped me to be efficient while writing research papers in the future.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/ZIzN7YWNuTUYg\/giphy.gif\" width=\"671\" height=\"377\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Coming back to the main theme of the class, \u2018Heroes and Quests,\u2019 I feel is a really vast topic to discuss. The first thing that crossed my mind on seeing the theme was &#8211; stereotypical heroes. The class, however, had so much more to offer. This quarter, in particular, was really fun as I have stronger opinions on topics such as anti-heroes, feminism, a hero\u2019s journey and medieval scriptures. I have learned to voice out my thoughts and have a stronger viewpoint on heroes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/jSj8qpM9daYxO\/giphy.gif\" width=\"672\" height=\"283\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And finally, towards the end of this quarter, I can confidently say that I am prepared for bigger and better writing prospects and that I am confident that by using all the writing and presentation techniques I will surely be able to do a great job. I have learned to appreciate my thoughts, my voice, and my writing. I know for a fact that there will always be people who are better with words and with the pen, but I surely am nothing less now.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/ful6IbWkBsVhe\/giphy.gif\" width=\"668\" height=\"375\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Considering this is a wrap, I would first like to state the obvious, \u201cGood things come to an end.\u201d I feel this saying holds true in this case but with a slight modification \u2013 \u201cGood things come to an end but leave behind great learnings.\u201d This quarter was a wild ride of learning, analyzing, reading, &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/2018\/02\/28\/its-been-one-hell-of-a-time-but-its-time-to-move-on\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">It\u2019s been one hell of a time but it\u2019s time to move on<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2137,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"qubely_global_settings":"","qubely_interactions":"","kk_blocks_editor_width":"","_kiokenblocks_attr":"","_kiokenblocks_dimensions":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"gutentor_comment":12,"qubely_featured_image_url":null,"qubely_author":{"display_name":"shreyavenkatesh","author_link":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/author\/shreyavenkatesh\/"},"qubely_comment":12,"qubely_category":"<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/category\/uncategorized\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Uncategorized<\/a>","qubely_excerpt":"Considering this is a wrap, I would first like to state the obvious, \u201cGood things come to an end.\u201d I feel this saying holds true in this case but with a slight modification \u2013 \u201cGood things come to an end but leave behind great learnings.\u201d This quarter was a wild ride of learning, analyzing, reading,&hellip;","post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/112","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2137"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=112"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/112\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":113,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/112\/revisions\/113"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=112"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=112"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/shreyavenkatesh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=112"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
