Usefulness of the community Partner

The Community Partner aspect of this course was very useful, and was one of the most fun experiences of my college career so far. This aspect of the class also helped me to better understand the terms and topics discussed in class as it provided a real world perspective on them. The fact that I could relate what we learned to how it is  applied in the real world of local government and local politics gave me a better foundation for the class in general and overall understanding.Working with my CP also helped me to better understand an issue that has always piqued my interest,but I had no idea how to get involved. This working relationship I have established with the Public Library of Brisbane will hopefully continue throughout the coming Summer.
