Although this lab was long, going through the tutorial made it a lot easier to understand ArcGIS. Since this program is new to all of us, having a set of simple instructions with visual guides made it bearable. Even with this tutorial though, I feel that there is a lot more that can be learned from this program. Like many other programs that have an unlimited amount of potential, I feel that going through this tutorial is only scratching the surface.
Practice does make a difference, and going though the tutorial more than once made it so that I was able to get a good feel for the navigation of simple tasks that later on will be almost natural to us.
Lastly, the tutorial was boring since we had to repeat it a couple of times. The first time was fun though since it was interesting to see how we can set tables that will reflect real geospatial data and having two different data sets work with each other. It really emphasizes the information that we received in lecture about specific ID's. Here we get to see how they work by our manipulation.
