Learning Frameworks

1. Bailey Ayers
Biology Major
I am an outgoing, independent, creative woman.

2. My three favorite assignments/discussions
 Metacognition Discussion- I enjoyed this discussion because it helped me discover how I learn best.
It also showed me how to study effectively so that I fully understand the whole concept of an idea
rather than just facts. College looks for comprehension unlike high school.
 Blog Reflection- This assignment showed me that I don’t know as much as I think I do. Although I
may think I know something, I could not give the concept when asked to explain. It taught me to
identify gaps in my learning so that I can fix them.
 Stress Discussion- I liked this because it made me realize that I worry too much. If I worry about
things that are beyond my control, then I will not be able to enjoy life. It taught me how to control
my emotions so that I can live a stress-free and happy life.

3. My three favorite journal entries
 Journal Entry 11- This entry helped me visualize my biggest dream. It gave me motivation, and I
realized that I will stop at nothing to achieve my goals. I learned that no matter what challenges
stand in my way, I will persevere through them.
 Journal Entry 13- This assignment helped me discover how much time I am wasting on unimportant
activities. I do not spend as much time as I should doing things that will contribute to my future. I
learned how to manage my time better so that I can be successful.
 Journal Entry 17- This helped me identify the obstacles that stand in the way of me and my success.
It also helped me realize all the resources I can rely on to help me overcome these challenges. With
these obstacles out of my way, there is nothing I can’t achieve.

4. My favorite week
My favorite week so far has been the final week because I am almost done with this semester.
Although I have really enjoyed this class, I am ready to be through with college so that I am one step
closer to reaching my goals. This class has taught me much about myself, and I am ready to use what I
have learned to help me become more successful.

5. Three lessons I will carry with me
 I control how successful I will be.
 Believe in yourself, and there is nothing you can’t do.
 Do not give up on your goals when life gets tough. Stand firm and persevere!

Throughout this course I have learned much
about myself. I have also gained confidence and
motivation to pursue my dreams. I have learned
to better manage my time so that I am spending
more time working on my future. I have also
discovered how many resources I have available
that I do not take advantage of. I have learned
that if I believe in myself, then there is nothing
that I can’t do.

7. My future!!!
One day I hope to be a physician. I hope to work in a
hospital, wear a white jacket, and have a stethoscope
around my neck. I want to help people feel better and
live a healthier life.
