1) I believe I am doing well so far. I have completed all the required assignments and have tried to do more than required. I would give myself a AE-.
2) I think I have done well on the research checks. Because the topic I am working on is something I really enjoy, I have no problem learning more about my topic. I try to get as many possible sources and gather as much information. I enjoy research checks because it allows me to focus just on the topic and improve my knowledge of the topic.
3) I would like to improve on presentations. Even though we have had just one presentation, and lots of practice the years before, I feel that I still can improve, especially with presentation skills. I tend to get nervous and focus on what people think, rather than focusing on executing the presentation well.
