If I could describe my learning journey in one word, it would be life lessons. As I continue to advance in the ADL program, life lessons have come at me in all different directions. Life is a learning process. I have learned important life lessons by reading, watching educative videos but most importantly through experience. This program has thought me that you can learn a lot from other people’s experiences. As I continue to participate in class discussions, read the assigned readings, and participate in the collaborative learning groups I have determined the key to this program is to evaluate your learning while comparing it to others learning experience.
