Chronicles of a 30-Something College Student

          I am a student at Ashford University Online.  I have never received online learning before this experience, as I graduated High School in 2002.  My degree I am currently working on is a Bachelor of the Arts Degree in Business Information Systems.  My first online course was Personal Dimensions of Education (EXP 105), and I got an A+ as my final grade.  I am on my 5th and final week of my second course, Digital Literacy for Life and the Workplace (GEN 102), and as of now I have an A+, so I expect my final grade to be the same, though you can never be too sure.  All it takes is one mistake for your grade to drop drastically.  The class I will start on Tuesday of next week is English Composition I (ENG 121) and I am not as hopeful about this class as I have been about the others.  I am very anxious about writing a research paper, but I am going to give it my all, and hopefully still have a 4.0 GPA at the end of this new 5-week course.  I will be updating this blog as much as every day and as less as every week, depending on the amount of free time I will have.  If you are at all interested in what could happen, stay tuned readers.
