Collage As Refuge Research Paper

Decent Essays
The best class i have ever taken was "Collage as Refuge". I had to take this class as a last minute resort this past summer and i am so happy i did. I enjoyed it because it first made you choose a place you love, whether it be in nature or a building and visit it every day. we kept a journal on what was going on in our lives. i liked this approach because as many know being a student and working full time can be crazy and to be able to take an hour out of my day to reflect helped. i still journal in the same journal almost every night. The teacher was one of the best teachers i have had.

    So staying in the dorms was an interesting opportunity to really test my newfound patience. I also learned many valuable life lessons and received an abundance of helpful advice at SouthWestern Michigan College. Being proactive instead of reactive was one of the best sayings I ever heard in Business 201 – Principles of Management with Stacey Horner. This is one of the best classes I could recommend to anyone, reading “Who Moved My Cheese” is what in fact inspired me. Several other helpful classes I would recommend are; Educational Exploration, Intro to Computer Technology, Intro to Meetings and Events, Professionalism Workshop, Business Law I, Micro and Macro Economics, Human Resource Management, and Two Dimensional Design.…

    On the first day of school, I remember walking into class and seeing all of the new people in my class. I also remember meeting all of my new teachers. I had no idea how much that I would learn, and I had no idea how much I would struggle to learn the new material. One particular class that I feel that I have learned a lot in is WHAP. WHAP stands for world history AP.…

Due to personal and family events, I wasn't able to graduate, so I am getting my second chance now, at both a degree and and the valuable experiences that being involved with the community and networking with others can bring. The one thing I did learn from my previous collge experience, both at Appalachain and at the community college I currently attend, is how much value comes from the colege experience outside of class - connecting with others who have different life experiences, and learning and doing things together to improve ourselves and the community. Since I intend to major in Communications/Journalism, I am looking forward to getting involved with student…

    The Scholastic Aptitude Test or better known as just the SAT is a test that in high school that is a placement test for college. This test was not only used to place students into certain course once they enter college but it is also used to rate the schools themselves. Based on how the students did on the test at my high school, that would predict the next year by minor ways of getting to take a day off after the test is finished or bigger things like adding a course to teach us how to take the SAT itself. This standardized test the SAT is not constructive in my opinion there is little to no improvement, it only test a small portion of knowledge, and the points question are not memorable.…
