This course has provided with a great deal of experiences. I have had some lows and highs
throughout this course. I have learned about perseverance and commitment to my educational
journey. Upon entering this course, I felt I was very well prepared. The professors I had prior to
taking EDUC 915, were very thorough with their feedback and summaries of my work. As a
consequence, I was very excited to take this course. However, as I moved through each week, I
began to question if I would make it the entire eight weeks.
My topic has been both my strength and weakness in this course. I had been fully committed to
my topic but my original research method has caused me much anxiety. At the start of chapter
one, I debated which would be the research method would be the best. After I decided on one, I
was told that it could not be used. I was very frustrated and felt a sense of defeat again. However,
I did not give up. I pressed my way to the next phase only to realize that I was not following
protocol. Again, I was overwhelmed with frustration.
I have learned asking detailed and specific questions is vital to my success. If I am unsure, ask
immediately. If the answer I receive is not providing clarity, ask again. I am a very independent
person, who does not ask for help often, however, this course has forced me to speak up. I have
realized that having support and receiving feedback is an essential part of the process.
There are a few scriptures that have brought me peace and I will reference as I continue on. In
James 1, we are told to persevere through tests and trials and in the end, God will give us a
crown of life (
New International Version
, 1978/2018, James 1:12). A verse in 2 Chronicles states,
we are to take courage, not let our hands be weak and God will reward our work (
New
International Version
, 1978/2018, 2 Chronicles 15:7). Each of these scriptures provide me with a
sense of peace knowing that my perseverance, dedication, and determination will be rewarded by
God.
I pray as each of you continue this journey, you will be provided with the peace of God! Good
luck to everyone!
