~~~HI~~~

HI! I'm Tsang Yee Kwan, Sharon(53558297).
I love reading and I enjoy reading travel magazines, blogs and videos. That's why my first individual assignment is about the impact of global tourism.
What I expect from taking this GE class? To be honest, I didn't have so much expectation before Week 1 because it is a GE class.  However, after Week 2, I've learned some technology and teamwork practices by using Trello, Cropmom, etc which I never used before. I find learning this kind of new technologies very useful and practical, particularly for a BBA student like me! This course is rewarding and I hope that I can apply those skills gained in this GE course to my major courses and even future career!
