Learning something new is very enjoyable. In this unit I read masses of things that helped me a lot. In section I, I recall reading that rubrics will help me do well on my assignments and manage my time better. For section II, I learned how the "discussion" works. Messages are called "posts" and we should always participate in every discussion because it will be graded. The teacher will put a topics or questions and we students are supposed to respond. A thread is a post that we are making when we participate in a discussion. I am very new to this kind of studying but I am learning more than going to High School. When I read a word that I do not know, I just ask my older sister or look it up on the thesaurus. On Section III; I mostly know all of it but I got something new in that section. I learned the "Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers" or the IEEE format. From my understanding, IEEE format is about writing a research papers about computer science. Another thing is while I was reading about "footnotes" on section III, I recognized it when I was still going in High School. Footnotes really do help a lot because when I do not know the word it is easy to find on the references or the definition of the word. Lastly Section IV,in this section I learned masses of things. One is I did not know that English has a lot of combination of several languages like, Old English, Latin, Greek and more. I reviewed the "Latin & Greek Root Words" and I kind of understand it I just need to work on it more.

What I Learned In Class

the most difficult classes I have taken. In class, we take notes most days and many terms have to be memorized for the tests. Each test may cover six or more pages of notes and worksheets that we complete in class. With this amount of material on each test, studying can be a challenge. Finding the time to study for such large tests as well as trying to retain the information we learned in class makes this course difficult. Though there is a lot of material in the class, I enjoy the topics we cover…

What I Learned Determination In College

word I learned the true meaning of throughout my years of high school. Through my failures I learned a number of things, including: determination, how failure turns into success, and confidence. One failure that stuck with me was completing an experiment. I had to complete a capstone project to graduate from STEM academy. My project was on the impact of plastic plankton on oysters filtering water in the Chesapeake Bay. I really enjoy using the bay recreationally. When I started my project, I was…

What I Learned In 8th Class

Now that I am (almost) finished with Honors English 8 (and just 8th grade in general), I have a lot of things to think about. For one thing, I shouldn’t have been so optimistic at the beginning of the year. I thought that just by getting into the 8th grade, all of my old bad habits would disappear in an instant. I have found that 1) that isn’t true AT ALL; habits take a long time to break, and 2) I didn’t really give myself the time to break said habits, and I ended up in an even deeper rabbit hole…

Discrepancy: What I Learned In School

discrepancy when there is a disconnection from what we have learned in school to what we actually face in a real life situation. This is described as reality shock. I have experienced this when I worked as an volunteer in the hospital after my graduation. It seemed that I knew nothing on the first day of my voluntary job. I found that the practices in the reality setting deviated from that I had learned from the school. For example, there was one time that I followed a nurse to administer medication to…

What I Learned as A Teacher Essay

What I Learned As a Teacher When I first started teaching the AP English Language and Composition course 11 years ago, I added more nonfiction to my lesson plans. Still, during those first years, I persisted in teaching much of the fiction (and even some poetry) I had taught in the past, adapting my presentation of the works to suit the AP English Language course. It was a natural approach for me because fiction had been the focus of my academic life. In addition, the AP workshops I attended in…

What I Learned In High School

career, I think it’s safe to say that I have involved myself in many extra-curricular activities that, really, do not have any relation to each other; I enjoy being a part of my local theater, being a part of huge organizations like Future Business Leaders of America, and being a part of varsity sports teams. One day I might be in full costume performing in a classic Broadway production, whereas another day I will be in uniform playing with the high school field hockey team. No matter what I was doing…

Personal Narrative: What I Learned In College

was joking. I had been saying that I wanted to go but just the thought of it stressed me out so I never did anything. This first semester has been one of the most stressful things I’ve ever done, school in general is the most stressful thing for me. Although I knew college would be stressful, I also thought it would be extremely intimidating. My biggest fear coming into college was that I wouldn’t remember the things I learned in High School, because it had been almost three years since I had been in…

What I Learned In Mr. Damiani's Odyssey

Mr. Damiani’s Odyssey If there’s one overarching lesson that I’ve learned in my own life, it’s that to achieve any kind of growth or insight we are required to take a journey into the unfamiliar and the uncomfortable, and that it’s often at the darkest and most challenging places that we are changed and are made to take on heroic qualities. We often don’t choose these journeys. They arrive to us unexpected and uninvited, sometimes catastrophically. Some people are forced to endure more than others…

What I Learned In My Writing Class

In this course, I believe that I have improved my writing skills more than I first thought I would. It was a good reminder of everything that I was taught in high school about writing as well as teaching me new techniques and methods that can improve writing essays or any academic paper greatly. I learned a lot about how writing styles will change depending upon whom you are writing too. Writing to a professor or teacher would be highly more formal than if you are writing to peers or those younger…

What I Learned In My Writing Skills

When I started here at Georgian Court University, my weakness was in my writing and grammar skills, which required me to take both EN105 and EN106 Essentials of Academic Writing II. These last two semesters have giving me a better outlook when it comes to my writing skills. I have always been a person that can express myself better when speaking compared to putting it down on paper. I struggled to put my words on paper because I start to get writers block or just didn’t know how or where to begin…
