The student reflects on what they learned about their own learning preferences and abilities during their first semester course. They discovered that they learn more effectively visually than auditorily, and prefer working alone to group projects. Working alone allows them to take on more work at their own pace without relying on others. The student also learned that scanning readings in advance, rather than re-reading carefully, allowed them to recall information effectively. They disliked public speaking and debating, finding both activities nerve-wracking. Mentor sessions were helpful for addressing issues not covered in class.

during this subject's first semester. I experimented with a variety of learning methods while in college and discovered what works best for me. I think. I learn more effectively visually than auditorily. It is simpler to watch a Powerpoint and remember the information than to listen to a lecture and retain the information. I assumed I would prefer working on projects alone than in groups when I first started the class, but that has since changed. I believe working alone is better for me since I can do more. When I first started the course, I thought that reading the material closer to the due date was a better idea since, if I didn't, I might not recall what I had read.
In my own learning during the course of the semester, I have learned a
huge amount. I discovered that I could read the content in advance, quickly scan it, and recall almost everything despite my earlier belief that reading more carefully was highly advantageous. Additionally, I realized that group work is not really my strong suit. I rather like working alone because I can do far more and don't have to worry about other people forgetting their contributions to the project. I dislike having to worry about other people not doing what they say they will. Furthermore, I discovered that preparing how to divide my work load by taking a look at the daily record beforehand was helpful. On that point, I also discovered that I absolutely dislike public speaking and that debate is something I detest even more. I never realized how nerve-wracking debate could be. Having mentor sessions allows me to work through any issues that may not have been addressed in class or that I simply forgot to ask about. I have discovered that the learning process is much simpler when you are in a class with individuals who don't criticize or make fun of your queries.
