Module 1 Reflection

My experience with online courses is not minimal, but hasn't been extensive either.  I feel pretty comfortable staying on task within the deadlines and engaging in communication with peers.  With that said, there is always room to grow, so I would grade my interaction in Module 1 as follows:

The majority of my communications would fall under evolving, with a few areas creeping into the effective column.  I feel that I have a strong understanding of the topics we have discussed so far, but not so strong that I'm not excited about taking part in this class.  Pulling from experience and sharing those with others will be another strength because of the wide range of responsibilities that come with my job.  I struggle with putting my thoughts into words at times and I often get frustrated when I can't get them from my brain to my fingertips.  Clearly explaining what I am thinking is an area that falls under evolving, and possibly emerging at some points.  Collaborating with others by expanding on topics is another area I can improve, evolving is the column I would put myself in.  My main issue there is rushing through the process at times.  If I sit back for a few minutes and think, everything comes out a little clearer and more in depth.

Overall, I believe I would fall under the evolving column, but not too far away from being effective.
