I learned the structure of the writing from the English class and the cooperation from the design class. A good essay needs a good structure; for a paragraph, you need a topic sentence, body, and conclusion. For the whole essay, you also need the topic sentence to explain your topic of your essay and the body to explain the topic, and a conclusion paragraph to conclude your finding. This structure will help the audience to understand your essay clearly. Secondly, when you make a project with your teammates you need to know how to cooperate with your classmates. A proper arrangement can save a lot of time and improve the efficiency. When I worked with my classmates, at first we didn’t allocate the work so some people did the same work and another result we lose a lot of time. And then we communicated with each other at first and everyone focused on their own works and finally we succeed in finishing the game. All in all, these two things was what I learned from the class.
