However, the examples and case studies we went through in class were really helpful in illustrating how to apply the concepts in real-life scenarios. For instance, I learned how to use social media monitoring tools to track and analyze online activity, which has been super helpful in my work. The instructors were also very supportive and available to answer any questions I had.
