Online Education Review

I have taken several online classes! I even took english comp 1 and 2 online. Honestly I think I prefer online classes. One of those reasons is you know how much work there is going to be as soon as the class starts and you can normally work ahead. In a classroom setting you are dealing with many personalities and learning types which are still experienced in an online class by the instructor but very little of other students. I am not even sure if my explanations are making sense.... Its very self taught which is I guess what I am getting at. In a classroom its so much easier to get off topic and lose focus. I would totally take courses in my major if they were offered online. I think the least valuable thing about online classes is that the tab for pinterest is so close to where I am doing my homework!!

Gen. Ed. Review


Since I took a majority of Gen-Ed courses at OCCC this post is tough for me. This is only me second non-major related course at OU. I honestly just took this class to take it because I got all my Gen-Ed Humanities requirements through my Associates degree, which was super cool!! The workload of Gen-Ed courses is so different compared to the workload of my major, which is expected. I still need one regular Gen-Ed class and I have no idea what I want to take! The struggle. The OU Gen- Ed website has a current list so that will be super helpful!

College Writing Review


College Writing. I think writing and my major is a big thing. The good news is I can ask other people to proof read for me, or my clients will provide the writing. When I think about English Comp 1 and Comp 2 I have never been a great proof reader and I would like to improve in that area. This was my first class where I go to write and tell a story. In other classes I have done research papers and things of that nature. I can tell you they are similar but totally different. Researching is telling facts and providing information.  Stroytelling is well…storytelling. I think I need a proof reading class! Is that a thing?! I cannot remember all the writing rules that were iterated at certain instances and then never mentioned again. Personal Goal: Work on proof reading.
