In my Learning Framework class has taught me how to be successful.
It's taught me how to use different theories to apply to my academic learning to apply
to work and to apply it socially as well.
Learning Framework not only helps you change your life but also move forward with it.
And a lot of my peers would say oh man I wish I could take this in high school.
I wish I took this in elementary.
And they wish they took a class like that would be able to help them in their other
classes and succeed more in them.
Balancing work and school it's not such a hassle anymore.
It really taught me to be myself.
Exactly who I want to be.
If you're a freshman coming in here and you're 18 years old and you don't know what you're
doing.
You've never had a job and you've never had been in a college class before.
It's going to give you those skills to be able to understand how to learn.
You can apply universally.
It's not just using it in that class.
It's going to help them in all domains of their lives.
It helps you academically.
It helps you socially.
It helps you professionally.
I learned many things and adapted to everyday life.
Everything just seemed to connect.
It's not just me I'm impacting.
I'm impacting those around me as well.
Because my words and actions, or lack there of, is going to have a positive or negative
impact on everyone else.
When you have discussions with a lot of people that you've never met, there's a lot that
you can grasp from them.
Especially if you're in a classroom with more diverse people than maybe there was in high
school.
There's a lot more that you can learn from them and so everyone's participating in the
discussion and so it really helps you to learn from a variety of people.
Taking this class has helped me get a different view, not only just on my perspective, but
other people's perspectives as well.
One of the things we work on is teamwork and in our classes we're able to go in groups
and we can see.
Well your strength is this.
My strength is that.
Your strength is that and then were able to utilize that and to use teamwork in that way.
I've learned communication.
I've learned how to deal with problems without jumping the gun so to speak.
Learning Frame has been a big impact on my life.
There's many people who are like me who aren't so good at organization and this class teaches
you that.
This class teaches you everything minus the trial and error minus the pain and suffering.
It's really beneficial to those fresh coming in or those who might need a refresher even.
Learning Framework really gives you a good foundation to do well in your other classes.
Every bit of what we learn has some science behind it.
This class gives you a system of thinking.
Knowing Bloom's Taxonomy, knowing different stage theories has helped me not only with
my life, but relationships with other people as well.
That's a big complaint that a lot of students have.
When are we going to use this.
Oh, I'm never going to use this.
Why am I learning this?
Well, in Learning Framework we finally found something that we're going to use.
This EDUC class, yeah may sound mundane or whatever.
You may not think that it's important, but actually it's really beneficial stuff in there
that you can really take away and apply in your daily life that you might not even realize.
When I first was told about this class I was not excited to be taking it because I had
a certain amount of credits that I wanted to do and I wanted to do things in a certain
order so I didn't want to have to take this extra class, but really I, now looking back,
I am really glad that I took the class because I feel like now I feel more confident at work,
about what I'm doing, I felt more confident in my other classes because I know how I'm
going to approach this and what learning techniques I need to use in order to reach a better grade
and a better understanding of the subject.
The move from high school train of thoughts to college train of thought.
You can use this in a lot of classes actually because you have to think critically.
I mean, it's college.
If you wake up and say Oh I'm not going to apply myself, you're going to fail.
Your GPA is going to go down the drain.
It actually improves the students and their success here at school and in their lives.
It helps them realize that no matter what happens you are the one who creates the outcomes
in your life.
I'm coming off my first 4.0 semester.
I never thought I was capable of myself and so why can't they do it?
They'll be able to once they get this class, get engaged.
They'll stay on track.
I'm grateful for this course because it taught me to change my mindset and not be a victim,
but a be a creator.
I never would've fought for a class, never would've spoken for a class, but because of
this I have learned to love learning and through that, I've changed myself.
I've wanted to get out and learn more.
My experience in this Learning Framework class was just life changing.
