Blogging Project

So today I decided to do a bunch of PBL's for school, because at least one is required for most courses, and it's worth 5% of your grade. For this PBL, I have to state why taking this "Computer Literacy" course is going to help me get a job. Well:

One factor would be that we have been practicing typing a bit throughout this course. Many jobs, especially technical ones, require a fast typing speed. I took a typing test recently and got 81 wpm, but on the first one I took for this course I got 69, so my speed has definitely improved. Now that I have a faster typing speed, I'm more likely to get a job, at least in the technical fields.

Another reason taking this course may help me get a job is the requirement of a formal writing style. I don't exactly have to use this on my blog, because it's a blog. However, when contacting someone via email or even text, you want to look as professional as possible. This is a very important skill for many jobs, and this course has covered that.

There are more ways in which this class may help me attain a job, but the project said only two paragraphs, so I'm stopping here.
