Module+7+Reflection


 * //Reflection Prompt: //  Reflect on how you perceive yourself as an online learner? Are you well-prepare to be an online leaner? Tell us about what you need to improve in order to be a successful online learner. **

**Description: **  This module we were to read articles pertaining to online courses and participate in the discussion board.

 **Impact: **  I perceive myself as an average but successful online learner. I keep all my materials organized as well as have all assignment due dates written in my planner. I am responsible enough to know to log in often, particpate in the discussion board, and to turn all assignments in on time. I am committed to my learning and to earn a good grade. I am finding that I am learning more in an online course. I spend more time doing my assignments and actually reading through the materials in an online course than in a traditional classroom course. However, to be more of a successful online learner, I need to learn and practice patience. I like to get my assignments done as soon as possible, I don't like the lag time in waiting for others to respond to the discussion board so I can respond, I don't like waiting for an email response, I am more of a "I want it now" type of person. Which may be because of my age and the digital world I grew/growing up in.

 **Intent: **  I feel uncomfortable in general to ask questions to other students, but especially in an online setting, especially if I don't know the other students. Even though the other students don't know who I am, I don't want someone to judge my post/question. I intend on building my confidence and ask more questions to other students when I have the question. I think most students need a "buddy" in the class that they know and trust. I intend on finding my "buddy".
