14) THE END OF MY JOURNEY

This coursework definitely challenged me to be creative. I think one of the most important things I'm taking away is that the design process is iterative. There were so many times that we had felt we knew exactly what we were going to create and how it was going to work. However, it is just not that simple. I thought creativity for this class was going to mean creating outputs in new ways. While this class did push me to do this, it also challenged me to be creative in the way that I think and tackle problems. By going through such an iterative process with so many challenges to overcome, it forced me to get creative in not only the way I took on challenges, but the way I thought about them in general.

This journey allowed me to prove to myself that I am creative. I can think outside of the box to develop and create things and do it well. This experience allowed me to experiment with many tools and ways of creatively thinking that I normally do not do. Moving forward, I will feel more confident to explore and ideate. Overall, I am proud of myself and my team for the things we have accomplished. I am looking forward to continuing enhancing and honing these skills.
