I find the concept of receiving a breadth and depth of information comforting. Particularly since I'm still not sure what I want to do with my life. I'm comfortable with the idea of learning through my lifetime and being open to new ideas, through the liberal arts. This semester's PORTfolio class centered on problem-solving skills. This class dealt with something that will be needed throughout life.
Problems always occur, in every aspect and stage of life.
By thinking through a problem critically, it is easier to arrive at a viable solution. The presentations by different faculty members that accompanied this semester's class were also useful because they illustrated exactly how problem-solving is necessary in every field. This is an interesting section. Last semester I thought I was falling apart. I was focusing solely on my school work and attempting to block everything else out.
