Ma105 Week 4 Reflection

I also now know that I need additional time to devote to this class. Where in other classes, I do not seem to struggle on assignments and clarification. I am a hands-on learner, so with on-line courses it is sometimes difficult to understand what is expected of the assignment, having the rubric helps though.

What can I say, week five; I have a lot of mental distress … just kidding, not the truth is that my mind is getting back together after dealing with so many samples and numbers ( as usual). Just like previous weeks a lot of material to cover, some of the topics like exponential functions were not that difficult to comprehend but they looked so hard to do in the book that unless you read the explanation multiple times and really pay attention to all the details, I do not think it will be easy to figure them out, wait what is that I am saying? … that is always the case with math and algebra, see what I mean my I am still having problems making sense, my brain is continues recuperating.

Week 4: What an amazing week I have had. My children are on holiday, we have had a lot fun activities to do as a family. Holidays are the only times I get to spend with my children as I work from Monday to Friday. I have also taken some time off work, hence I am not as stressed as I am most of the times. However I tend to manage my stress well by practising. I really appreciate your feedback and the guidance given during this course work.

As usually as part of my strategy to study every week I tried to find some videos to watch but I could not find any they would have been very handy since I got a little confused while doing the discussion.

The study materials worked out for me. From the lesson is a basic overview and read the book for specific details.

For Brianna, the key to understanding the content was outside of class. She recommends getting together with some classmates and "breaking up the material" into manageable pieces. She also noted that the amount of repetition from Dr. Karle was essential for memorizing information.

The head basketball coach from Tuskegee Institute once said, “Don’t limit your challenges, challenge your limits.” I was always afraid to challenge myself until one day, I learned to step out of my comfort zone. Taking GSW 1110, was an expected challenge as a high school student, but throughout this course I was able to accomplish a lot and improve as a writer. I can conclude that my writing has improved greatly due to the establishment of the correct principles of writing introduced to me this semester. Although improving during this course was something I always strived for, I am determined to continue improving so I am prepared for future academics in my career.

4. Don't forget, there is going to be an Internet outrage campus wide on Sunday (11/01) from 8:30 to 2:30. Plan ahead, and work on your MATH 101 HW # 15 before this outrage, so it would be ready before it's deadline

This year, in MA103 I hope to greater develop my problem solving and mathematical skills. In order for this to happen, I have a few expectations for the course. On top of course expectations, I also have expectations for the instructor and myself that I hope will be met throughout the semester.

The start of this semester I did not know what to expect. I didn’t know how many classmates, who the teacher would be, or the probability of how well I would do in the course. Now, it’s getting close to the middle of the semester and mid-tests. I am very happy that half of this semester is almost done. During the fourth week of this class, surprisingly I learned some new information about myself. Based on a Myers-Briggs personality test I found out that my type is an INFJ. This acronym stands for Introversion, Intuition, Feeling, and Judgment. It also means “The Advocate”, how ironic since that is what I do for a living. I work for an agency as a home care aide to the seniors with

Before I enrolled in SOP 3932(The Psychology of Drugs and Drug Abuse) course, I always believed that a 12 Steps Program is only for addicts to attend and the counselor who is guiding them could be there. Then when Professor Berry informed be that I needed to attend a session I felt sick to my stomach. The reason why I felt that type of why is because the negative perception I received from it from the media and word of mouth. When I attended the meeting this past weekend I was apprehensive because I never saw so many addicts ever in my life. The place was at it capacity and I watched some addicts had trembling hands, others couldn’t sit still, and the remaining addicts was zone out (it was like their minds wasn’t there at that moment). When the host came out to speak, I watched how the people shifted their focus on the host

During my research, I learned multiple new concepts and tools that will help me with future papers. The part of the paper that I think helped me the most was the Story of My Search part because it helped me keep track of what I had already searched. Because I had what steps I did written down, it helped me focus my search and narrow my results to what I was really looking for. I also learned more about EBSCO than I previously had known. I had used EBSCO only one other time, which was in my dual-credit speech class. When I had used it previously, I didn’t get to know the different tools, including the export and cite options. Also during my research, I found out that a lot of work goes into a research paper and that it may take a long time to

I'm sorry I've missed several classes. One week I had a midterm exam during class and the other weeks I've been dealing with health issues that I'm receiving help for at Gannett.

Fourth, study throughout the course; do not wait till the last day before the test to sit and cram your notes. In order to follow your course material schedule, you will have to decide approximately how many hours you will need to study for tests. Get a calendar and clearly mark off the hours each week that

This has been my best year in math. We started the year covering exponents, which thoroughly enjoyed working with. The concept initially confused me but after some practice and explanation I soaked it up. Another big part of math this year was pre-algebra. As with exponents, the concept was originally confusing but over some time I understood it. I completed a lot of problems where I solved an equation algebraically. I mainly completed these problems in two different ways using elimination and substitution. After trying both ways I decided my favorite was substitution. Even though elimination is quicker I believe substitution is more versatile. In Beacon I predict there to be complex variations on math I’ve already learned or brand new fields of math. Whatever they throw at me, I look forward to practicing and applying the concept to real life.
