Closing and Reflection

Throughout the course of this first semester, I have learned many different skills in the art of planning. I have learned how to use my pencils and pens most effectively. Their strengths and weakness on different types of paper, because using different types of paper changes the quality of both the pencil and the pen. I have also learned many different types of programs that I could use on my computer. Some of these programs include Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, SketchUp, GIS Mapping, and AutoCAD. These computer programs are most likely to be helpful in the entirety of my Urban Planning Career.

During the first half of the 2021-2022 college school year, there has been many school assignments and home problems that have come up at roughly the same time. I had to learn how to manage the school/life balance and how to manage my time most effectively. I had to spend less time doing things that were unnecessary like playing games and watching TV, and spend more time doing schoolwork. I learned that I must focus my time on what is most important, my education.
