Reflective Narrative: This course has taught me how to make an online portfolio to display all my work and achievements here at CSUMB. It has also taught me how to properly write and make a personal statement and résumé displayed on the home page. Also, working along with both Japanese and Spanish majors has helped me see two different worlds and the way some aspects are similar in both languages. Lastly, I enjoyed building a website as it has made me more knowledgeable in the technology world.
