Directions:
- Review the grading rubric as listed on this page.
- Develop a 750 word journal discussing what type of learner you are. To help you develop your journal, you might want to consider the following:
- What kind of student are you?
- Are you usually prepared, organized, and engaged? Or are you often unprepared, disorganized and easily distracted?
- How has your “type” affected you over the years as a student?
- How does this make you feel about yourself as a student?
- What types of things have you done to improve you weaknesses and develop your strengths?
- What are your family’s attitudes about learning and academics?
- When you are finished developing your journal in the Google Doc, copy, paste, and publish your journal onto a new blog post at your WordPress site.
- Follow your instructors directions for submitting your work.
