2. In this class, I have often been tempted to give up because there are constant assignments and blog posts that must be completed. However, I pulled through because in this class, whatever grade I get is up to me. There are no exams, quizzes, research papers. Therefore, if I get a grade I am not happy with, it would 100% be my fault. This class has definitely made me more tenacious through its assignments and workload.
3. Three tips I would offer future students who are interested in taking ENT3003 regarding tenacity would be:
- Plan ahead. Plan what blog posts you want to complete on which days and what type of content you want to deliver for each post.
- Be detail-oriented. In my experience, I get the most positive feedback when I provide my audience with details about my ideas, interviews, or research. Posting specific content directed toward the matter will make your posts more interesting and unique.
- Remember YOU are in charge. Whatever grade you get in this course is up to you. How much effort you put in will directly correlate with the grade you receive. Put in the work and you will get the best results.
Great half-way reflection! I agree with everything you said, specifically your tips. I personally need to start planning ahead lol. Overall your blog looks very professional and well done. Probably one of the better blogs I have read. Here is a link to my blog if you are interested in checking it out. http://ufstudentpost.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteReading these posts I have been very interested in seeing the different ways people manage this course. Some people, myself included, feel little to no need for a self imposed schedule or structure, while others, like you, are greatly helped by such structure. Though I don't agree with your first point universally I can totally understand how much help organization can be to those who need it. I really like the second point you made about owning your grade. Reminding myself of this had definitely helped me out this semester. The three tips you give at the end would be great for new students taking this course, and they do a great job of tying the whole post together.
