When it comes to online learning and learning within a traditional classroom there are many differences. One major difference is the learning face to face which is done in a traditional classroom and online learning being all through email, messages, or chat. Some may argue that face to face learning is much more effective than online learning. However if a person has the discipline to complete all the recommended areas then there shouldn 't be no better way of learning. Another major difference is the responsibility that one would have to have to be to the classroom at a certain time and certain days of the week. Where as online learning, in many cases, only requires you to complete assignments by a deadline and you work at your on pace.

I pervious attended the University of Phoenix and many of their requirements are the same as Bethel University. While I was with Phoenix I was required to respond to two discussion questions, eight responses to fellow students, an individual assignment, and one team assignment. With that being said I would like to think that I have the discipline to complete the assignment work for each course. I also was required to use the APA formatting for all assignments done both individually and with the team members. The APA formatting is defiantly not my favorite as I am still learning everyday new tricks on how to write a better essay. Another area I feel that will help me succeed is the ability to want to keep on learning. I have had a few friends who have went through online courses and ended up not having the want to learn but only the want to graduate. Of course I want to graduate but I also want to learning everything possible so I can use it in my future career in the law enforcement field. So I truly feel I have the want, the previous skills, and the desire to succeed to make it through my academic journey. However everyday is a new day and everyday things are changing so in order to stay on top I must continue to learn even if it is learning more about the APA …show more content…
If I wasn 't always multitasking I would not know if I was human anymore. Being that I am a mother of three children; two of which are in grade school and the youngest being a year old; I can 't do anything without such a thing. I do believe I am great at focusing even if it is reading material, taking a test, or simply checking grades. I think that everyone learns differently. Some people can learn different than others. I know many people that can listen to music or have the television on while working on course work but that I can 't do. Does that make sense? Of course not. I can listen to my children playing in the background and still complete my work but if it is other noise I simply can 't do it. I think it is because I am use to it were as a television or music is something different every so many minutes. I have wondered if I have truly retained the information that I have learned and now that I am in the law enforcement field I have proven to myself that I do remember what I have read and tested on. I have actually used the information more that once since my beginning of my career journey in January. The one area that I know that I need to improve in is giving my course work a break. If I am working on an area that doesn 't come clear to me I will read, research, and question everything until I come to a conclusion when sometimes I need to walk away and give myself a break. Even if it is only for a minute I truly feel this would help rather than
