When this assignment was assigned, I knew I wanted to choose the two assignments I knew that were going to help me the most later in life. After a semester of learning about email etiquette, the job application process, designing PowerPoints, and research methods, I knew I had a lot to choose from.

I am in a position where this online school does not help me understand anything that i learn. What if someone does not like to read at all?
