Now that you have a good sense of the types of online activities and the rhythms of an active participant, what steps will you take to be successful in this program?
As an active participant in the JHU Program, I will strive to do my best in the online activities and communications. I will make sure to use my Outlook calendar and itouch to stay up-to-date with all activities, assignments and expectations.
How will you be a contributing member of your team? How will team activities impact your time management?
As a team member, I hope to contribute reliable, relevant and useful information and resources to teammates. I will make sure to read and respond to comments, perspectives and ideas with support and open mindedness. I am excited to learn from others and will take back a wealth of information by connecting, communicating and collaborating with others from around the globe.
What have you learned about your communication style? How will this impact you as an online learner?
After taking the communication style inventory, I found that I am a "feeler" communicator. The characteristics for Feelers fit me perfectly. I agree with the description and count on my communication style to assist me with effectively communicating and contributing to group discussions and activities.
Where do you still need additional support?
I am fine at this point and do feel that I need further support. I am so excited to be getting started with this program and learning from others expertise and experiences and sharing mine as well.

You did a great job reflecting on this week’s topics. It seems like you have a very solid plan to kick off your "official" coursework. You are 100% right in that online learning requires you to manage your time wisely. Based on your experience over the past two weeks I think you got a sense of how important it is to use the activities checklist to help plan out your week. It is essaentail to stay on top of the work in these online courses because the assignments can easily pile up. Also, in many cases your team mates are dependent on you for a piece of the assignment and they can not move forward until you do.
Best of luck to you, as you move onto your first course.
