Approach to Completing First Assignment
The first thing I did when working on my fist assignment was read the chapter. I then filled out the questionnaire and went over the results to make note of what my strengths and weaknesses were. I ranked the chapters from least to most importance based on my results from the questionnaire. Next I made notes from each chapter that I felt I needed to focus on the most. From there I made my outline and wrote my report.
Why did I think that my report was adequate to hand in?
When I handed in my report I was unsure of its adequacy because I felt that I should have had a stronger conclusion. I knew that it was not the best paper I had ever written but handed it in anyway.
Assessment of original paper.
My assessment of my original paper is a 6 out of 10. Even though it started out as a strong paper, it did not meet the criteria for evaluation. Self evaluation is a difficult task especially when it comes to examining your own strengths and weaknesses.
Explanation for the rewrite
I decided to rewrite my paper to ensure it met all evaluation criteria. I am not here for just a passing grade. It is my intention to do well in all my classes and I feel that handing in below average assignments will not help me in accomplishing my goal. I knew before I handed in the original that I could do better.
Analysis to approach for completing assignment #1
I believe that my approach to completing the first assignment was efficient because I believe that in order to complete an assignment, the material must be reviewed and understood. The assignment was completed and handed in on time. I do believe that I could have written it better before handing it in.
What did I learn?
I have learned that if I am unsure of an assignment, I need to ask questions. I need to make sure that I am using my time efficiently. It is very difficult to learn anything when I am tired or distracted by things going on at home. Whenever possible, I will be completing all of my assignments at the college to avoid distractions at home. It is also easier for me to learn what I am studying if it is quiet and I make notes as I read.
