Hello!

Well we are in to week four. It is so hard to believe that we are almost half way already. I hope that everyone else is doing pretty good in this course. So far so good for myself. I have been really trying to make sure that I stay on task and get all my work done on time. As we go along I feel more confident with myself. I really do think it is all about pacing yourself and taking your time on the work. I am getting ready to start a new job hopefully next week so I hope that it doesn't all overwhelm me at once. Good luck to everyone this week!

Being an online student

Being an online student is really not as hard as I first thought it would be. The only thing is not having the teacher right there for assistance when needed. On the good side to that, they are easily accessible for you to contact. I have always been one of those students that has to hear it as well as read it myself. The seminars help me to understand better with the Professors explaining the information.I   have become much quicker on a keyboard and with the functions of a computer since I have enrolled into Kaplan. It is all about technology and those two right there are needed with the changing of the times. No matter what, I am going to make the best of this learning experience. So, hopefully in the next year or so I will have the career that I am seeking.

college achievements

I am currently in my 4th quarter here at Kaplan University. So far I have not done to bad. Some of the classes I have done better than I expected and the others not as well. My grade point average is still a 3.2 so I must be doing something right. I was always very good in English class back in school, but when it comes to writing a paper then I seem to have problems. I never had problems with plagiarism before until last quarter. I never even realized that I did it. I am repeating that course now along with this one per the KU policies on it. I am going to be optimistic. Maybe I can get a better grade than before. That is one of my goals from this learning lesson. Another is to really take my time and make sure that I do not plagiarize and put to good use our writing center. I will be sending my essays to them for review before I turn them in to make sure I never have this problem again. It really has me conscientious for my future papers.
