Hi! My name is Zoe Miller and I am going to be a sophomore this upcoming fall. I am majoring in fashion design in VPA and am taking this course to lessen my work load next semester.
Along with this course, I am taking a Stat class and have an internship a couple days a week. I choose to take this class online and asynchronously because I like the idea of being able to log on when I can and do the work at my own pace.
My best advice for taking an online class is to check black board frequently and to look at the schedule ahead of time and see what the week or weeks will look like!
What kind of internship are you doing, Zoe? I’d be interested to hear more.
Looking ahead is great advice–it’s helpful to know how the work you’re doing at a particular moment fits into the bigger picture, as well as to be able to plan ahead for the inevitable times when WRT 205 work bumps into something else in your academic or employment life. When you can see those scheduling conflicts coming and plan for how to reconcile them, it’s definitely easier!
I am interning with a small denim company called Still Here to help out with whatever they need done and learning about the industry! I am extremely excited to start with them!!
