What were the most compelling topics learned from this course?

There were several units that I found compelling during this course. The subject content has been an eye-opener. I found the individual projects to be both challenging as well as rewarding. I have learned how to challenge my mind and push my skills to the next level. I found learning about the social environment that concerns today’s corporate world. I liked learning about the social and environmental goals of Toyota and how they take a proactive approach to how they engineer and produce their line of products. Toyota’s environmental philosophy strives to preserve the environment across all of its business activities. Toyota works to develop and promote technologies that are environmentally friendly and economically active, (Corporation, 2022). I never really thought about the social or environmental impact that corporations like Toyota have on society or the environment before delving into this discussion board and researching Toyota.

How did participating in discussions help your understanding of the subject matter? Is anything still unclear that could be clarified?

I feel that participation in the discussion boards allows me to gain valuable insight into the perspectives of my fellow classmates and allowed me to participate in the discourse of how they arrived at their conclusions. I think that everything that was covered in this course was well thought out and I have learned a lot.

What approaches could have yielded additional valuable information?

I feel that between the insight of Professor Chance during the live chats along with the discussion boards and individual projects, the course content was presented very well. I cannot think of anything else that could be done better. I like the practical approach of this course and wish that more of my classes had been like this one.
