SOPHIA 202 Week 3 Reflective Journal Personal Learning Strategies

SOPHIA 202 Week 3 Reflective Journal Personal Learning Strategies To prepare for this journal, return to Chapter 3 and review Sections 3.1 and 3.4, paying careful attention to Tables 3.10-3.12. As the book explains, “Vincent, Cari, and Duane all lack an understanding of how to be mindful, intentional learners. …they are not headed for success, because they lack a personalized set of study strategies. Each [student] requires skills to turn their internal thoughts (metacognition) into external actions (personalized learning techniques).” For this journal, you will explain what they could have done to be successful and identify personalized learning techniques to be more intentional learners. You will also identify personal learning techniques to help you be a more intentional learner. Note: This journal template has two parts that you need to complete. ……………….. Part 1 Directions: Critically review the scenarios of Vincent, Cari, and Duane in Section 3.1 of the book. 1. (Vincent: S-Avoid, P-Use as Needed, TR-Use First, C-Use as Needed) Describe two things Vincent could have done to be more successful. Identify two strategies from the charts in Section 3.4 that he could have used to FIT (Forge, Intensify, or Tether) his Learning Patterns more intentionally.

If he would have made up his mind to sit down and work through the assignment, from start to finish, without stopping… that would be a start. Additionally, he could have intensified his confluence to spark a bit more interest in the assignment, and ultimately tethering his technical reasoning. 2. (Cari: S-Use as Needed, P-Use First, TR-Avoid, C-Use as Needed Describe two things Cari could have done to be more successful. Identify two strategies from the charts in Section 3.4 that she could have used to FIT (Forge, Intensify, or Tether) her Learning Patterns more intentionally. I can definitely relate to Cari’s struggles related to her use first precision. She should first, accept the fact that she will fail at times, and THAT IS OKAY. She needs to truly believe and understand that not every assignment is going to be perfect the first time around. Tethering her precision will allow her to tap into her as needed sequence and confluence, which will give her the ability focus on the message instead of getting caught up in the details of perfection. 3.
