Chapter 1<\/span><\/p>\n

1.1<\/span><\/p>\n

Right off the bat, I like how straightforward the directions are. Though, there could be a bit more detail with where to save files\u2026 but, I understand the book may not be written to save files to hard drives.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

1.2<\/span><\/p>\n

I really appreciate how the book first tells you what tab to go to, then group, then the individual features. It makes it a lot easier to navigate things. Learning how to zoom in and out seemed a bit silly to me, but I guess it doesn’t hurt to go over that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

1.3<\/span><\/p>\n

I was very surprised at how many \u201ctools\u201d there were in the \u201ctoolbox.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

1.4<\/span><\/p>\n

I ran into a problem in this section\u2026 when trying to open the 3D map, I got an error that said \u201cfailed to open map view.\u201d I couldn’t figure out how to troubleshoot this so I just read the rest of the tutorial and moved onto the next section.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chapter 2<\/p>\n

2.1<\/p>\n

Starting off chapter 2, it was refreshing to see a map other than Pennsylvania\u2026 It was getting old. It is interesting to see a map that requires a lot of zooming in to distinguish features.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2.2<\/span><\/p>\n

This section took me two tries to get down. On my first try, my labeling got all messed up and I restarted from scratch. On my second try, I found it a lot easier. I think I was just rushing through the first time. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2.3\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This section was pretty straightforward and didn’t give me any issues. I liked experimenting with the street width and color just because it’s so detailed and can easily get overcrowded.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2.4\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I had to skip this section as well because it was not opening for me. I made sure to read the tutorial in the book though.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2.5<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 2, tutorial 5 was a very straightforward section. I was overwhelmed initially when the under 18 symbols were so big but it was an easy fix.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

2.6<\/span><\/p>\n

Using the swipe feature to reveal the map underneath was very cool. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2.7<\/span><\/p>\n

This section really explained why values of certain things are important when considering how detailed you want to be.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2.8<\/span><\/p>\n

When I first opened this map and zoomed in and out, I noticed how cluttered the school symbols became when I zoomed out a lot, so it was nice that we fixed this in step 3. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Chapter 3<\/span><\/p>\n

3.1<\/span><\/p>\n

I enjoyed making the chart in 3.1. It felt like a very advanced version of making charts with google sheets in high school.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

3.2<\/span><\/p>\n

It was very cool to be able to \u201cpublish\u201d what I was doing on Arc online. When I was trying to change the symbol color online, I couldn’t do it. I wasn’t seeing a color option like the tutorial said. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

3.3<\/span><\/p>\n

Learning how to publish work in 3.3 was pretty tedious and I was anxious for it to be over. It was pretty cool though.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

3.4<\/span><\/p>\n

3.4 was also a pretty tedious section and I am glad to be done with it. <\/span><\/p>\n
