Three options for reflections this time–and they’re really quite different, so choose whichever one is the right “style” for you.

  1. Do some web research.  Find some descriptions of online learning programs (you can use the commercial ones, like University of Phoenix or Capella, or the more “traditional” institutions like UMass Online, Penn State’s World Campus, or UMUC’s program or any other you can find.  Tell us what you’ve found, and let us know what you think of these options–especially in regards to your own learning style(s).  Would a program like any of these work for you? Not just for a class, but for your whole academic career.  Could you earn a degree this way? Would it match your style nicely?
  2. Get imaginative.  Think about the kind of learner you are, what works for you now.  Then try to imagine what it would be like to learn in the opposite way (whatever that means–you’ll have to tell us).  This could take the form of a story, an essay or description, a “day in the life,” or a kind of stream-of-consciousness, what’s going on in your head.
  3. Try something completely different! Go outside of the regular bounds of a written reflection.  Make a video. Or a photo-essay.  Or a comic strip.  Or music.  Whatever you can do–embed it here if possible (I can provide technical assistance with that part).
