I definitely agree that this class has taught me a lot more than the literature classes I’ve taken. While I enjoyed a lot of those classes, I also ended up walking away from lots of them with the feeling that I hadn’t really gained anything. However, leaving this class I feel like I’ve learned tons about things I didn’t even know existed (markdown languages and how the internet works). I’m really thankful that I got to take this class before graduating and am with you all the way on being grateful for the people in this class. It’s been fun!

I feel like I just started. My PWR classes have been some of the most experimental and mentally pushing classes I’ve ever taken, and this class is no exception. Learning HTML and CSS was genuinely painful. I did mental gymnastics every time I sat down to try and figure out why something wasn’t working. In the end, though, it was very rewarding. This final project has been super fun, and something that I’m excited to see come full circle. It’s been a lot of fun seeing everyone’s game come together. I thought you and your group’s game had a good balance between fiction and history. The code actually helped me figure out how to upload videos! I hope you have a great rest of your semester!

I can totally relate to the exhaustion and the mix of emotions at the end of the semester. It’s crazy how quickly time flies, especially when so much is going on. It felt like this semester was on two times speed. We’ve definitely picked up a ton of new skills this semester. I’m glad to hear your group project came together and your research poster board on ttrpgs affecting writing skills was top notch. As for interactive nonfiction, don’t be too hard on yourself since it’s definitely a tricky genre, and it’s all about finding that balance between fact and creativity. You’re doing amazing stuff and you’re awesome! Keep up the great work!
