Personal Perspective on Learning

The University has provided several resources to help facilitate my learning experience and attain my goal of completing my MBA. There are three key elements to the MBA program that are used to assist and educate the student in this learning environment. Each of these elements is uniquely designed to promote proactive thinking. The rEsource area provides online access for research, tutoring and writing services, the learning teams are used to build team-building skills and the problem-based learning format is used to encourage creative thinking. I believe that rEsource will be the most valuable resource throughout my degree program, due to the many services it provides.

The Value of rEsource

The main reason that I feel that rEsource will be valuable to me in attaining MBA is due to the many services it provides. Without question the Center for Writing Excellence will be essential to my success in this program. There is an automated program called Writepoint, this program is able to proofread my papers at any time of day at my convenience. There is also the Tutor Review that offers the same service, however, it is a manual process so it has a slower turnaround. Another service found in the Center for Writing Excellence is Tutorial and Guides section. I have already found this section to useful in giving me guidance on how to write this paper.

Considering that an online program consists of a lot of research the University Library is a very vital component of rEsource.

    Matthew L. Sanders discusses the necessity of taking responsibility for one’s own education in a section of his book Becoming a Learner: Realizing the Opportunity of Education. In this section, Sanders explains how he initially blamed an instructor for not teaching him sufficiently and then learned that “No matter what kind of teacher you have, no matter what kind of class you are taking, if you are a learner you will set out to understand the material and create opportunities for success.” This statement is true and the concept can be applied through many methods to create success for students if they are willing to put forth effort.

  • Book Review: The Essential Drucker

    1160 Words  | 3 Pages

    It was stated in section fifteen that more and more people in the workforce will have to manage themselves and have to place themselves where they can make the greatest contribution. The section A Challenge for Individuals also said that entrepreneurial society individuals face a challenge which is to exploit as an opportunity the need for continual learning and re-learning. This then made me think about the whole process of the program. The Management Trainee Program specifically Seaoil’s Management Trainee Program allows us fresh graduates, to know ourselves better by allowing us to have a deeper understanding of what and who we are as an individual, by making us discover our strengths, our own way of performing and accomplishing tasks and meeting goals, and assessing if our values align that of the company as well as letting us gather more information and store more knowledge. It will not only make us aware, understand, and experience the different departments and operations of the company. Upon starting, it first made me wonder why unlike other MT programs of other companies, we do not directly get immersed in the company’s operations and why do we even have to read a book and submit a book report. But after several sessions and after reading The Essential Drucker, I have realized that this MT program

  • COL 101 Reflection Essay

    506 Words  | 2 Pages

    One of the things that I have learned is how to use different resources at college. One of the resources is the library. Since the library is closed right now I learned how to use the online library. I did not know how to use the library website at first, and know I know how to use it better. I use the website for almost all my classes. I use it for finding articles, and doing research. I think this resource will be the most helpful to me, because I can use the online resources to find articles, books, movies, and music. If I need to do research on a topic, I can always request a book and check it out from the library. The COL 101 class has also helped me with my future.

    I stand awake and alert. A first year college student with my sights fixed firmly ahead and my goals just within reach. A positive light is cast upon my future endeavors. Yet, as I reflect upon my educational experiences, I find myself drawing parallels between the direction in which my life is headed now and the similar paths I have traveled along before. I am forced to ask myself if I am truly prepared for what lies ahead. I have asked myself the same thing many times. I was once in a similar position. A fledgling student wavering just between the lines of hesitancy and motivation. I was beginning my freshman year at Oakmont Regional High School in Ashburnham, Massachusetts.

  • Personal Growth Through Learning

    I’ve made it my passion to be a life-long learner to sharpen my skills, abilities and God-given talent. When an individual doesn’t make a conscience effort to expand their minds, then they are actually making a decision to begin to digress. Being an older college student, my desire is to learn everything that I possibly can with the aid of Victory University. It was fascinating reading about Rene’ Descartes who grew up in France. Descartes was also a life-long learner. He was the thinker and writer who coined the phrase, “I think, therefore I am” (Gluck, Mercado, & Myers, 2014, p. 7). Although Descartes existed during the time of the Renaissance, his theory that the eyes were significant to stimulating other parts of the body, such as the fingers, arms and legs was brilliant. It is now understood that this” process begins with the stimulus, a sensory event from the outside world entering” through the eyes (Gluck et al., 2014, p. 7).
