As I reflect on the many technical skills I learned this semester, the skill that is of greatest value to me right now is the cloud based file sharing. I now feel empowered to create structured documents and share them accordingly with my coworkers. I am confident that I know what considerations to make when sharing files, such as who has access, what kind of access and for how long. Also, I have confidence in my Word processing skills. I can now add references into my document using the built-in feature. If I have a large document, I use the navigation view along with headings to quickly access information. In summary, all these things have made it easier for me to do my job as a student and as a healthcare professional.
