Editor's Notes
The online library has been a huge help for me when I am doing research for a paper. It also has enhanced my learning experience by providng other toold that has helped me write papers. Some of the other resources that the library provides is plagariam check, grammer check and tutorial and guides. I think without these resources it would have been difficult for me to successed in producing good quality essays.
Live labs have helped me tremendously, there was a time when I needed help with my math. I was also able to get on a live lab and connect with a teacher and other students. This allowed me to enhance my learning abilities and become better at math. Some of the live labs that are provided are writing labs, accounting labs, finance labs and programming labs. Some of these labs are open on the weekend and till late night whivh is great for busy adult learners.
Adult learning thrives off od self directed learning, in addition adult learners needs resources to help them enhance their learning experience. Without student support services centers it would e hard for adult to stay on track.
