Reflective Narrative
This course helped to prepare the students with the rest of our time as Japanese majors at CSUMB through a wide variety of topics and lectures from different professors from both the Japanese and Spanish departments, allowing students to better understand the goals of the World Languages and Cultures department, as well as help students gain a better understanding of what possible topics they could chose to investigate as Capstone projects. During one segment of the course we learned about the search engines and research archives the online library features and how to use them to our benefit as we would soon be starting our Capstone projects. Various career opportunities available to Japanese and Spanish majors were also presented to us during presentations from previous Spanish and Japanese majors as they taught us about their careers and how they settled into them. Throughout the class we continued to build our ePortfolios, as well as organize what we needed in order to graduate. This entire portfolio holds evidence of our completed Major Learning Outcomes and works through linked projects and essays.
