PART ONE: TWO Examples of Transformative Learning

The first most transformative learning experience is my view on animals. Before this class, I would feel empathy to any animals that need help. But I hardly make any actions. But after a quarter of carefully learning animals, I realized empathy is not enough. Actions matter. The more one actually does, the greater chance on saving one's life. I will continue to do the most that I can do to help animals in the future.

The second most transformative learning experience is the method of annotation. I never use any "tricks" for my annotation before. Whenever I had to do a 10 pages annotation, I can hardly breathe. But this class taught me the way to annotate. It helped so much. It not only saved my time, but also gave me a better understanding of the reading.

PART TWO: Taking Stock-- TWO Problems & A Plan for the Future

I have a really bad procrastination. I never do my work until the last minute. Since this class requires so much time and efforts, completing my assignments on time is a challenge. But I have to solve this problem eventually since we have no idea when can we able to return to classroom instructure. I would probably make a calendar and make my friends to oversee me on completing each assignments.

In addition, I have always had communication issue. I am always scared to talk to unfamiliar people. I thought this problem could be solved during online structure, because we will be talking to people through internet. But still, I am very afraid to start a conversation and maintain it. This issue definitely needs to be change as soon as possible. It is causing my mental health and stress issue. I will try to approach people starting now and make friends with them. I hope I can become better next year.
