The visual design class helped me understand more about technology. My grades weren't as great as I had hoped. I usually catch on and understand topics quickly but this was different. Learning about photoshop was challenging, but i got through it with new knowledge and my head held high. This fall I learned about photoshop and indesign, their tools and their components. I found it especially fun when we had to make our logos because we had the freedom to express our creativity and individuality. the harder more difficult aspects were when the pace was too fast and i was held behind by an anchor of missing knowledge. Luckily my friends and peers helped me and I overcame the obstacles. I found the restoration lab especially challenging because the tools did not behave as i had hoped. The independent homework was what held me back. To improve in the future I must turn in all my work. This is vital for the future because the fall semester because it acts as a foundation for future lessons.
