This weeks internship class was quite different than all the previous classes. Diana and Tara both joined us in the Chemistry SINC Site addressed some issues that we needed to be aware about. As our supervisor Diane opened up to us about her shortcomings and let us know of our importance in TLT. It was very heartwarming to know that people truly do appreciate our service for them. Diana also mentioned about revamping our Lynda.com website and trying to make our webpages more people friendly. Until she pointed it out, I was not really aware of how technical our webpages were compared to other universities. Afterwards, I started noticing that our webpages do lack user friendliness.
In addition to her presentation, we also were given the opportunity to role play. It was a fun experience trying to understand and enact different situations whether as the consultant or as Rose. She used this opportunity to address the issue of consultants not showing the proper work place etiquette.
For my mentoring hours, I started to do quizzes as attendances. Nam went over the documentation for his MAC workshop and it helped me visualize what I can do for my final presentation. Celia went over accounts with me and spoke about her experiences with the internship and gave me some advice on the final presentation.
