Procrastination and typing are two challenges that concern me the most about my online learning. I sometimes important things off until last minute typically because I get busy doing other things and forget about them .I usually think about them at the last minute and try to hurry to get things done. Since I have begun my online learning I have tried to stay on top of things instead of waiting until the last minute to get it done as I normally would. I feel that I am a strong willed and I can get anything done that I set my mind to do. I have planned a certain time each day to study and do homework to keep from getting behind. I will seek help from my professor, counsler, and online resources as I need to become successful at Ashford. Typing is not a huge concern to me as I have been practicing every day to get better at typing. I also found resources online to aid me in typing as well. I will continue to practice each day and use the resources I have found to progress my skills.
The two most important things that I have learned about orientation are all of the available resources and all of the helpful staff that Ashford offers to students. I think the library will be a great help to me in my future with Ashford because it offers so much for students and has online Librarians to assist you as well. I have also had a lot of assistance from the staff at Ashford. My counselor calls me at least three times per week to check in with me to see if I am getting things done or if I need help with anything. This is very important to me because I do have a lot of questions for her and she normally has the answer or she will find the answer to whatever I need. I think with the help from staff and the resources available I will be able to get my assignments done and that will help me be successful in my studies at Ashford University. I know with hard work and studying I will earn my Degree with
