Angela Ramirez Final Project: Survival Guide

Wow I cant believe that these nine weeks already finished. Let me tell what I learned in class.

I learned where I can get my recourse in the library for example center for writing excellence here I can write my paper and get it check by using WritePoint this will helped my when I turned in my paper and it let me know that I used the second person too much and will give me ideas as to what else to use. It also checked my verbs, punctuations and capitalization. The other thing you can use is Plagiarism Checker this will let you know if you copied someone elses work or if someone copied from the internet and its not there own paper or words. Instructors use this resource as well which I think it is very good so they know how many students are actually doing there own homework.

We as student need to uphold academic honesty this means we need to follow the class rules. Students are expected to conduct themselves ethically, honestly, and with integrity. Students are expected to respect the rights and privileges of others and to foster an environment conducive to learning. Students are accountable for their actions and are required to work independently as well as collaboratively with teams, in achieving learning goals and objectives. Just because you are not in a tradition school there are still rules to follow. The most important one is plagiarism if you are caught doing plagiarism you can be dropped from the program. Honesty is ones word and if you dont have that

then your words mean nothing. We are adults and we teach our children to have respect for the elders and instructors so why would we do the same?

I have set my goals I want to get my Associate of Arts in Health care Administration/Medical records first and then I will get my Bachelors and of course my Masters I will achieve this by 2015. In order for someone to accomplish their goals they need to have a lot of support from family members if you dont have that I dont think you will achieve yours goal. I already completed the first nine week of my goal I got this far I will finish the rest because my husband is behind me 100%.

When I started this course I didnt managing my time wisely I didnt know when I was going to do what. But when I took this class and had to write down how I had to manage my time I had to think how this will work for me. This help me a lot and now I manage my time they way its going to help me in the long run. This way I can make sure that I finish my homework in a timely manner.
