I HAVE MUCH TO LEARN...
This past week, April 2nd-April 5th, was quite an interesting experience for me; I found myself in a class full of people who have more experience and knowledge about the things which we as a class will be doing throughout this quarter. I was grateful to see that people are accepting of my lack of knowledge in the science of electricity, and that they are willing to help answer questions that I have.
I've enjoyed learning how to map out and test circuits this week, It's a really great feeling to learn stuff like that! At first it was difficult, but the repetition has been a huge help in learning this skill.
A struggle that I have had this week is that, I don't know what I don't know. It's difficult to ask questions when I don't know what I don't know. So to help me get past this problem, I will do my best to study and gain a better understanding.
It's definitely not easy being younger than most of the people in this class, and also not having anywhere near as much experience as them. But I do have a desire to learn, and the drive to keep with this. Hopefully, my determination to learn will make up for my lack of knowledge in these subjects.
I look forward to the coming weeks in this class, and the new challenges that it will bring.

Hi Jake,
ReplyDeleteYou have made very thoughtful observations here. Well done. Now consider when you are done, graduated and working, of how far you have progressed. I think you'll be amazed.
You also have the power to slow me down, ask others, and ask the class as a whole to promote your learning.
We are all learners; we can all make mistakes, and it is OK. Even your instructor. He can't even blow a fuse properly. (;
