Personal Narrative: Taking Charge Of Your Online Learning
I am a “Hands On” type of learner and also a “Risk Taker”. I have my goals set and I love the direction that I see myself going in while I’m attending Regent; however sometimes I know I my habits of studying gets in the way and I wait till the last minute sometimes and it frustrates me.
When reading “Taking Charge of Your Online Learning”, I find the best learner that fits me is “Transforming Learners”. It show’s I “place importance on self-managed learning, committed effort, independence and long-term vison. I use personal strengths, ability, persistence, challenging strategies, high standards, learning efficacy, and positive expectations to manage learning successfully and last but not least, it shows I lose motivation and become frustrated

    Learning from mistakes is a key part of life. I myself have had to learn from my mistakes. Over the summer I cut my foot outside. I spent the whole night in the worst hospital, then I got 18 stitches in the bottom of my foot. It also set back my ability to play football. My mistake was going outside without shoes, now I wear my shoes all the time.…

    My personal learning style is doing. I learn best from the hands on approach of getting in to a topic or job and attempting to complete it on my own. This allows me to see my mistakes and not have them be prevented before they happen, which allows me to note the problem and fix it. I find it much harder to learn using concrete experience and reflective observation. The fact that both these styles are much harder for me to learn from effects my overall learning style because of how I learn, just watching someone else complete a task is not enough for me to learn by.…

    In chapter 12, the key event to me was when Claudia and Finn talked to each other through the keys. I felt many emotions when reading their interaction one of them being happy. I felt happy when they talked to each other because it was a turning point in the story in my opinion. I also felt surprised because at first, I thought by having two keys, there would be a lock that would need both keys to hear and speak to each other. I also felt confused by the way they conversed; How could they now hear each other but not before. I think by having one key being touched, the other key can hear because on page 153 Claudia says she breathed and rubbed on the key making it warm and on page 154 Finn says when he touches the key it's warm.I like the way the author wrote the scene from both perspectives, it gave us the readers a clearer understanding of how both Finn and Claudia felt. I also like how the author described the way both keys affect each other and have a "key" connection.…

    A major theme in my life is improvement. I challenge myself to take risks and set high expectations for myself. For instance, I strive to run faster and for longer distances every couple of times I approach the treadmill belt. I am obstinate about my minimum distance, 2.2 miles, and my minimum speed, 6.8. A major component of improving myself is learning. Every new word is a miniscule enhancement of my massive English vocabulary pool, but it is still a step in the right direction. I enjoy becoming more knowledgeable in both domestic and international affairs. I wish I could have more time to pour into reading current event and health articles. I am particularly attached to drumming the latest scientific discovery or innovate biotechnology product…

    My educational goals can be said to be broken down into three parts that are really the means to my ends which is the fourth and most important goal. First, Im working on getting good grades in every class, I want to work on having and maintaining a high competitive GPA. My second goal is to get my Bachelors in Political Science in an ideal time frame of two more years. My third goal and one that is out of my hands, one may say, is getting a scholarship. I know there is a large amount of competitive students in the school, who are well deserving of scholarships but I need this scholarship to alleviate my parents from their stress and hard work to keep up with my payments. The last and really my main goal, where my eyes are set and where I,…

    My education will never be complete. This knowledge affords me the ability to grow each and every day. It teaches me to question the world and to learn from these questions. I learn through different lenses and circumstances I experience each day. At seventeen, I am nowhere near complete. I am young. I am flawed. I am naïve. What I have learned has led me down different paths in order to achieve different milestones on my own journey. I am strong. I am creative. I am poised...but most importantly I am learning. My education has allowed me to learn about myself, about others, and about the world. I am evolving through the educational process and through the effort of acquiring knowledge. I have no idea what I will learn tomorrow --some days…

    Growing up I spent most of my childhood in Vietnam living an ordinary life. My parents were not risk-takers until they decided to quit their career as educators and move to the United States. Knowing that life in America will be challenging for immigrants, we mentally prepared ourselves to be fearless and get through every obstacle that is in our way. No matter how prepare we were, being a newcomer was frightful. When I first step foot on the land of promise, there was a mixed emotion suddenly rushed through me as a signal telling me life here will not be easy. We faced will endless obstacles and the language barrier is the most, the biggest challenge for us. Personally, I think learning a new language is difficult and requires a lot of hard…

    American climate scientist, Mark Caine, exclaims, “The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself”. Beginning my high school career, I thought high school would be an easy transition because I was accustomed to getting good grades in grammar school, so I did not put as much of an effort as I could have in my studies. The first biology test arrived, and I thought I was knowledgeable on the subject matter so I briefly looked over the material. Approximately a week later I got my test back and I was not satisfied with my grade. That happened for most of my first tests in each of my classes. I learned I would not be satisfied with my grades if I continued to keep those…

    Life has been a bit busier and slightly more challenging since starting online college. Firstly, I wake up every morning at around 7:30am and immediately let my puppy out from her kennel and take her downstairs to then go potty outside. While she’s outside doing her potty duties, I begin to fix a drink and take my vitamins before going back outside to take care of more puppy duties. Afterwards, I fix breakfast and eat whatever I choose to eat for that day. Most of the time it’s either toaster strudels or chocolate chip waffles that I decide to cook in the toaster oven. Once I finish eating, then the puppy and I go back upstairs and I put her in the kennel while I get a shower and ready for the day ahead. Which is a process in itself, from taking the actual shower to fixing my hair, brushing my…

    I chose English 131 as my solitary online course for this semester and it was a straightforward decision for me to conceive. The primary reason for this choice was my attendance at two former colleges, which provided online classes. As a result, I acquired a wide array of experience on quizzes, discussion boards, assignments, and interactions with other students. With my previous knowledge, I feel extremely confident in my ability to perform in this online environment. There is no doubt that difficulties and challenges may pop up, after all, it is a new school with different rules and standards. Nonetheless, regardless of what difficulties may enter my direction, I believe I will overcome any issues that may…

    The learning style assessment revealed that I tend to more of a visual learner. This was expected as I have always preferred to be shown how to complete a task and then try it on my own. I think this learning style is most conducive to the online learning experience. Knowing my dominant learning style will set me up for success throughout my time at Bethel. However, I think knowing my limitations is equally important. For example, when completing our attend section of the curriculum, I have found it helpful to make notes. When I only hear information I tend to have trouble remembering it, so taking notes is my way over overcoming that particular hurdle. I anticipate that my preferred learning style will remain visual but I am open to the possibility…
