This whole on-line learning thing has really thrown me for am loop. \u00a0One thing that I have definitely learned is that I am a hot mess. \u00a0But another thing that I have learned after interacting with my peers is that is ok. \u00a0It’s ok for me to learn things differently and that I shouldn’t be ashamed of that. \u00a0That really is valuable, not only to my sanity but to my confidence as well. \u00a0Over the last few weeks I have spent a great deal of time learning my strengths and challenges. \u00a0My greatest strengths are that I am committed, I am organized and that I welcome change. \u00a0My biggest challenges are getting distracted while being on the computer……oooh look facebook….and that I have a hard time with the way most material is presented in an on-line classroom. \u00a0I learned that I have a multimodal learning method which really upset me at first because I thought it meant that I should be able to “get” the material no matter how it is presented to me. \u00a0So I was like, what on Earth is wrong with me. \u00a0But after spending a little more time with it, I realize that multimodal means that I learn best when the material is presented to me in different formats. \u00a0Telling it to me really doesn’t help; neither does just reading about it. \u00a0I need visuals and hands on tools which I know, going forward, will be my biggest challenge. \u00a0But I am determined to not let it get the best of me! \u00a0I really do want to succeed! \u00a0And I will not be held back by whatever learning disabilities seem to be plaguing me. \u00a0I gots this!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
