Advisors are great in helping us pick the right general education course that will help us a lot according to our likes and preferences.

I never thought that the Humanities are a deep field that impacts others' areas. But, then, I agree when the author says that the study of the humanities is the heart of all majors and all careers because, without that, you will not make decisions rationally and realistically, so this field is significant for all of us. Taking classes in this area as general education will significantly help us in the future.

I remember learning about reading with a purpose, and it was beneficial for me to understand that we focus on what we want to learn or understand. So, when someone comes up with a different idea about something, you start making a connection with his vision and understand better the subject or thing. So, it is just an example that perspectives can change during your lifetime because when you are learning something, you focus on that subject and what it can improve your knowledge about something.

You realize that you earned one more ability that you can use when you have an opportunity, and it is excellent even if you do not use it frequently, but you know that you have general education in this field.

I did not know that artists have other ways to show their disagreement with something with their art, and I found this one interesting.

I agree with that, and I think art really activates all the senses. For example, when you look at a piece of art no matter what your brain starts to try to understand the information by making connections with what you learned and the visual sense of the information that you are receiving.

Reflection became a habit for me as well. When writing a consideration, I explain what I am feeling at that moment and what comes to mind because when you share something with someone, you feel more understood, and the person you share the reflection with can help you with something.

Discussing the natural world with someone, you both have to be interested in this type of content and why it is difficult to stop for a while, think about it, and ask related questions.

I think that when you say it's just a curiosity of the person you're going to ask, it makes them pay more attention to what you're asking.

When you try to improve something, finding someone with the knowledge to help you is satisfying, and you give your all to learn in the best possible way. From experience, I remember when I was 14 years old, I asked my parents to hire someone so that my chess game could improve quickly, and that resulted after six months, I played better and understood the game better.

It is a good practice if you want to develop your critical thinking. You must participate in debates about things that you know of. Also, metacognition is essential to develop critical thinking and organizing what you have to do well.

Talking with the academic advisor is excellent and can help clarify all your doubts about college, what you will expect in college, and concerns about your major. If you need to decide what path to follow, you can also talk to them to find the right major for you regarding what do like.

When I came to the U.S. and started my undergraduate at UA, I asked myself why is necessary to take too many classes regarding Gen Education. Still, I realized that learning skills and preparing for my future are required because we can pick courses we want to learn more about. So The Gen Ed program is beneficial for students.

Being the first generation to graduate from college takes work. You have a lot of pressure on you because this is the first time anyone in your family has had this experience. My father told me that "going to college is easier when you have a family member that already graduated from college because you have someone to ask if you have a problem or struggle. I am saying that because I was the first generation in my family to get a degree, and it was not easy," he said.

It is pretty common sense, and everyone identifies with that because when you grow up, you have a lot of ideas about what career you will choose, and decide that you have to understand really well what you want for your future; moreover, it can be tricky if you do not have someone there to help you out.

The Think Tank and cultural learning community are essential if you have any weaknesses regarding any classes. For example, last semester helped me enhance my grades in Chemistry and Math because I struggled in these two classes.

I am a member of the Wildcat Chess Club, and it is a very nice club if you want to play chess or learn even if you do not have enough knowledge about chess we would like to have you with us.

I am taking a Psychology class this semester and I am learning more about metacognition, and I know that Metacognition is the ability to evaluate a cognitive task to determine how best to accomplish it. I know that it is very important if we want to have success in our lives.

I think this is a step important if you want to move forward to something new.

I do not enough knowledge about the class, but so far I think the goal for this class is to prepare for a long journey that we will have as wildcats for sure, and making a better decision that will impact our life in future.

I hope so, and I will do my best to have success as a student.

It happened to me too, but as a young person, I understand that as a learning because my journey is still far from over.
