I am taking a class called Software Engineering, and I think it's changed my life. In that class, I am working with a group to develop and release a software project using a technique called Agile methodology.
Now, the life-changing part isn't the project I'm working on. It's not Agile methodology specifically, either. It's the simple idea that to get a project done requires concrete goals and a real plan. In other words, business 101, but I'd never really thought how to put that idea into practice. In this class, we developed a vision of the final goal, then broke it up into achievable tasks and scheduled the semester to plan when we will complete those tasks.
