I finished my first class at WGU!

I finished my first class at WGU! Although, it was only the introductory class teaching me how to use WGU's website system. But hey, its one of the many credits that I will be receiving.

One assignment was to write a five paragraph essay. A simple essay, but a format that is used in elementary school. I had write about why I want to become a teacher. I wrote what I thought was a great essay, but my mentor told me that it didn't really follow the assignment. I was worried that I would have to start over again, but he also said that the assignment was to show if we could write well or not and I can write very well. Damn write! I'd better be a good writer, I only worked as a journalist for two years and then as a technical writer for three years and then as a blogger for two years.

I'm glad this course is finished. It was kinda frustrating having to take an introductory class. It was very helpful, but I wanted to get into the core classes as soon as possible.

I took a preassessment test to find out where I need to study and I think I injured my brain during that test. More on that in another post. 

My first class at WGU

I started my first class last week. Its called Education Without Boundaries. All WGU students have to take it as their first class. It teaches you how to use the WGU student portal website and how to work on your online degree. I thought this class would be easy, but it is actually a bit hard. There is a ton of information on the website and finding your way around could be a daunting task. This class helps you through all of that.

Before I started this class I was hoping to have it done in a week. But after a week long vacation last week and having to do other stuff this week I feel that I am getting behind. WGU wants me to have this class done by the end of the month, which won't be a problem, I was just hoping to finish it much faster. Oh well.
