Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: This course definitely did change me. When I went into the course, I went in fearful about what I had to do with all the writing, but now, at the end of the course, I actually look forward to reading scientific articles, and writing responses, because I realize that is how I actually absorb them, and learn . . . there were a lot of PowerPoint slides, and that stuff I do not remember . . . Knowing when the papers were due, and having one every week, sometimes I liked it, sometimes I hated it . . . You're in school to become a better person, to be smarter, to think differently . . . so of course, that influenced me as a person . . . I know more about communicating, about what I can do and how I can improve . . . I feel like I could go on and on about that one!
