Project Report
IT Consultant
Sanjuanita Gutierrez

Project Description

In the process of my classes, I created three projects. The first project was finding your niche, interviewing an expert in the field, elevator speech and a proposal for a new webpage. These projects give an understanding on what one needs to know to become a top notch IT Consultant. It also provides a foundation for any student wanting to pursue being an IT Consultant.

Lessons Learned

I had learned a lot during the course. One item that was learned in this course was how to create a blog. I had entered postings on the blog for other course in the Education Technology program but had not created a blog to use for a class. Project one was the hardest for me, because it is difficult to analysis your own strengths and weaknesses. I had found it to be an eye opening discovery. I had also learned how to create a successful elevator speech and will attract new clients. The last project was a proposal for a client. It was in this course, that I learned how to change a word documents into PDF format that I had did not know how to do. While conducting the interview for project 2, I learned how important the clients' ideas are to the overall project.

Modifications Made

I had made some modification to the design of the website. I have centered the tables in each page as well as changing the background color on all of the projects. Also on project one; I have lightened the shading of the table so that text would be readable. I feel that with these changes make my projects look professional and appealing to the viewer.
