Reflection - Section 11 - Time & Problem Solving - Dec. 10
Yes, it was very resourceful. Time and problem solving is extremely important not just in reading and writing some life in general. Whether it be work or school, these topics are useful throughout life. Today's activity was a little confusing at first, but it gradually got exciting. I learned to list and organize more better.
Time management and problem solving are important elements in life. i also agree that class was a little tough today, however it is coming closed to the end of the semester, so a heavy work load is to be expected.
The information from the link was extremely helpful. I have problems with all of these with time management being the most problematic. Throughout all projects each of the five sections (Managing time, motivation, problem solving, decision making and project management) must be addressed in a neat as well as efficient manor. I find that the link gives great tips on how to keep your mind on track and limit the problems that may occur. I thought class was extremely interesting and I am really sad its ending soon. ;'(
The link above will be extremely helpful to others who need help with time management and back planning. As a soldier, I've learned how to manage my time for everything so I could have enough time to do other things when I am free. The link is all about making the right decisions and making life easier for yourself. I wasn't in for today's class but I bet it was interesting.
That's great that you've learned to manage your time! Hopefully I learn to manage my time with this resource and stick with it. It definitely would make life easier.
I find the link above very helpful for me because lately I haven't been juggling things in my life well. I know im not the only one who has a job and is going to school so i know many people, especially college students, can find this website very helpful and stress relieving. Its stressful enough right now for kids with studying for finals and the last thing they need is to be more stressed because of disorganised schedules so the best thing right now for them is to use the website on time management. In addition, todays activity with citation was a great refreshment on my mind because i know i learned it in high school but forgot all about it and i know I'm going to need to use it sooner or later for any upcoming papers.
That's true. I think a lot of students start to slip when it comes to time management and final exams in college. I know i am one of those students who get overwhelmed the most towards the end of the semester or when it comes to finals.
Yes. I believe the link above was helpful. I was reading the link and it really taught me how to manage my time efficiently. I really like the steps to problem solving as well. I want to practice these steps for next semester and I want to see if it works or not. The link was very helpful. For today's class activities I got to learn more about MLA formats. I learned different ways to cite my work. If it's a book or a newspaper I know how to cite it. I think it's helpful for our upcoming English courses. So this is preparing us.
I thought that practicing MLA formats were a big help to me also. Properly citing a source using MLA format can be very tedious, because for every different type of research element such as the internet, articles, books and magazines; there is always a little detail that changes in the entire format.
I really all links, it will help me improve and better my writing. The link about will reminds me to stay focus and most of all stay positive toward exams week. I'm going to print it out and use it as a guide to help me prepare and study for exams.
Today activities reflected on many things, and for the most part it was a review and reminder of all the chapters through the book. It was a nice reminder of the different style of the citation and sources.
That is a very helpful academic resource. I certainly will benefit from it especially with the managing time and tasks part. It can help me take the first step to managing my bad time management habits. Today's activities involved going over a few essays in the book, answering those critical thinking questions, mla sources exercise, and punctuation. I didn't get the answer right for the critical thinking question. I know I need to practice thinking critically, I've always had trouble with those type of questions. Good class session, we got through the book!
i think the link above is resourceful, because time management is important and a part of our everyday life. Although, we use time management is used on a daily basis, it is very easy for us to become overwhelmed. Using this resource as a guide is a great way to remind us of our time management. In today's class, we went over a lot of things. It felt as if the work load was more than what we usually do in class. However, it was to be expected because it is getting closer to the end of the semester and we were just making relations to everything. Very informative day. I liked the brain stretchers.
This site is very helpful to lead to a healthy lifestyle as a college student. This does not have to only apply to college life. It may apply to career life as well. It may help those who are very stressed on managing their time and not doing their tasks on time. Problems on time management may lead to laziness and restlessness. There is a list of suggestions that may help an individual get back on his/her feet! Today's activities went pretty fast because we finished the textbook! The discussion on citations were helpful and I'm glad there's a guide to the various citations. We did another brain stretcher and the pictures seemed like they were mostly in vacation places. It was quite fun!
I found this website very helpful. I'm glad that we don't just learn English in this class, but we also learn important life lessons such as time management. It is difficult for me to be a full time student with a job and family obligations, but this site gave me really great tips and helped me prioritize the important things in life. Today's lesson was helpful because it taught us how to cite our sources. I will definitely use my EN100 book for future reference when citing sources! It's crazy how quickly time flew and that the semester is almost over.
Great Job Lisa! We go to school to learn more about life experiences, not just English. You are absolutely tremendously correct! This source has helped me in many different levels in a positive way!
This resource reminds me of my college success seminar. I use my time management skills, and it's not that easy. It's a big responsibility to use the time management skills wisely. For example: I'm banned from the internet. Therefore, in order to do work, I use the computer center and internet cafes to do this blog postings,
I found that resource to be very helpful. Time management is something we should all look into and improve. Since we are in college and some of us are taking on jobs, families, and so on, it gets quite difficult to try and balance it all. The resource gave great tips! The ticket out assignment was pretty cool. I liked the photo I had chosen.
I agree with you. Since we are in college and have a job on the side, it is hard to balance out the time for everything. That link will be very helpful.
I found the resource linked above very helpful. As a college student, time management is difficult to keep organized and to maintain it that way. Class was good, learned new stuff. And I'm glad we finished the book. I'm sad that the semester is ending...

That is true. We all need a little push or a little reminder for us to have that motivation to finish.
DeleteI need to do more effort from all these tips. The way I text is so different from others now.
Deleteyes we all have to enhance our skills the year is almost over

The brain stretchers always gets my attention. I like to be able to explore several things in my mind by one view.
