In setting up the blog, I
actually found it quite simple and straightforward despite having difficulties
at first. I was having difficulties setting up a Blogger account since I was
using my school Gmail, instead of creating a new Gmail account.
I expect to learn about
understanding the meaning and uses of art that will be studied throughout the
course. Also, I expect to have a better understanding of different
interpretations, concepts, and development of art.
Additionally, I have taken
a few online courses in the past. I feel that the course load for online
courses can be heavy, especially with the amount of readings, discussions, and
assignments that are due almost every week. It is hard to keep up with all the
deadlines, but I think it is manageable.
The first thing that applies to me from the Growth Mindset
videos is leaving home. My hometown is in China, and I came to study in the
United States. At first it was a difficult adjustment but I have enjoyed
studying here once I made new friends. The next thing that applies to me is
finding the time to study. I have taken a lot of courses last year and it was
difficult to find time to get all the assignments done and studying for tests
and quizzes for several courses at the same time. This year will be another challenging
year in finding time to study as I take many courses again. Finally, the last
thing that applied to me was being worried about fitting in. I was worried at
first that I would not fit in with the crowd and it would be difficult for me
to make friends. However, after meeting people that had similar interests with
me such as in the sport of basketball, I felt that I could definitely fit in.
