How will understanding your learning style help you support your success inside and outside of the classroom?
I think by understanding my learning styles, I can better understand the tasks given to me by my instructor by knowing that I can use the resources available through SNHU to help me grasp whatever concept I am working on. I already know my preferred learning styles and how to best accommodate myself with them when I am handling an important project. I have highlighted my preferred learning styles above.
2.
Identify a problem-solving technique or method you have used in a previous situation and explain how it worked for you. Identify how these methods might look different in diverse cultures or different fields of work.
A problem-solving technique I have used in previous situations is re-reading whatever is presented to me, and taking a step back from the work itself to reevaluate what I have done, and see if that is the correct order in which I need to perform the task or finish the project. I also take ten-minute breaks in between whatever I am doing in order to retain more information, instead of continuing with what I am doing; I will allow myself to re-think about the information presented to me and I can understand it better if I look at it a second time. I feel like taking a break, or taking longer to finish a task might be seen as procrastination in a different culture or field of work. In my own experience, I
have had to re-do many tasks to fully grasp what I am doing or what I am learning. This has been seen as being ‘lazy’ in my previous elementary school days. In my Native Alaskan culture, a person is meant to do their task right the first time, no waiting or interruptions when finishing that task. I have been taught how to cut salmon when out fishing, but it did not make sense unless I did it multiple times, asked multiple questions and I have noticed that other people around me with a different method of taking on problem solving seen that as interruptive. I learn differently than other people, and I have come to accept that.

How do you plan to stay organized or prioritize your SNHU study time?
I have made up a schedule for when I will study, workout, spend family time and for going out to shop or run errands. I am implementing this schedule this week, started right after Labor Day. My schedule consists of doing my study/work in the mornings, working out in the early afternoon, and dinner/family time during the late afternoon and evening. I feel like this schedule with help me stay on track, as I need a set routine
