Class struggle

My junior year, I decided to take my first Advanced Placement class, which was AP Chemistry. It was easy at first because it was all review from the general chemistry class I had taken the previous year. Then it started to get really hard. I had drifted through all of highschool with never needing to study before and suddenly I was studying for hours every night. The stress was really taking a toll on me and I slacked off third quarter. Fourth quarter was spent reviewing and on top of refreshing…

of the readings. I know it is common for students to slack and attempt quizzes and writings without reading the literature, but that is just not possible. Another tip I would have is to make sure you are not waiting until last minute to work on the class. To prepare for the course, I would suggest students get the required book early to be able to skim through it and prepare for the course. 4) What did you feel you gained by taking the course online? What did you feel you sacrificed by taking…

an A throughout the rest of the semester, because my grades are based on participation in activities and assignments. In both of my Biology class and General Chemistry I have maintained a low B. For University 100 and Philosophy 112 I have kept a high A. For my Biology 160 class I have not worked on assignments, like homework. I usually work on that’s class homework last so by the time I start I am already tired. For the rest of this…

realized that everything happen for a reason so, I thought to give it a shot. I started thinking about the positive side of a computer science class like my friends were there in that class, computer science got a great scoop in technical field and my teacher was a pretty nice and understanding person. First, thing I did after I was enrolled in the class was that I put a poster on the wall of the room. Which states that “study computer to get good grades” and Whenever I wake up In the morning I…

Clinical Practice Improvement (CPI) tool is used as plan, do, study and Act (PDSA) in this project. This help delivers quicker improvement and easily understandable guidelines for the experiment of envisioning modification to conclude if the modification has improved the practice and subsequently the results (Continuous improvement frame work, 2012). Plan: - This phase focuses on method of continuous improvement in project framework. It is used in planning the test or planning for data…

idea what I was doing, who I wanted to be, or what the next four years would be like, and a tentatively declared English major. I didn’t know where I was headed, I didn’t really even know what I wanted, but I did know that I liked books and English class in my past years of school. I actually almost went to Western to major in business, but that’s a story for another time. When I’d met with the academic advisors during…

Most children these day will not ask: Why do I have to “report to class on time?” Why do I have to “respect the teacher’s position as leader in the classroom?” Why do I have to “cooperate with the specific rules of the school?” Children these day do not and will not question the reason why they have follow these written…

It was the first day of college and I just finished my first class in Violet Hall. I was feeling pretty confident and excited for the semester. After my computer science class let out, I turned left after exiting the thirteen hundreds quarter of the first floor and took the first exit I saw, thinking about my next class which was in Barnett Hall. The day before I walked to all of my classes, especially to my psychology class in Barnett, to make sure I knew my way so I would not get lost or be…

perfect behavior but I believe I display good behavior almost always. The only category I circled proficient for instead of exemplary is the “Level of Engagement in Class” category and I will get into detail about why I feel that way later in my essay. The first two categories I want to discuss are the “Level of Engagement in Class” and “Listening Skills” categories. I feel that I display exemplary behavior in the listening category because it is a rare event for me to have side conversations…

I promised myself that if I made it through, and despite any adversity, I would not let anything stop me from following my dreams and pursuing my passions. Though my adjustment to hormone replacement medications has been a struggle and I do occasionally still have thyroid related symptoms, I have recovered sufficiently enough to resume my studies at UCONN. During my recovery time, I began taking classes at Manchester Community College to test the waters, so to speak. I was…
