Module 4: Web-Enhanced Reading and Study Strategies

Throughout Module 4, “Web-Enhanced Reading and Study Strategies”, the most valuable thing I learned was the availability of online resources for study. In all the time I have spent studying and searching for help online (which I have to say is not as much as I’d care to admit) I never realised how vast of an array of free online learning resources there is on the internet. Now, I know you might be thinking, “Ok boomer, it’s 2019 and everything you could ever possibly imagine is on the internet” but really it took until this module for it to come to my attention how valuable of a resource this whole world wide web thing actually is. The module pointed out a whole spectrum of sites which would prove pivotal in my completion of this week’s assignments. One side of that spectrum looks like sites such as the Purdue OWL (Online Writing Lab) that essentially have information on every kind of professional writing you could possibly be assigned. On the other side of the spectrum is study tools like GoConqr or Quizlet which are centered around helping the user grow their knowledge about various topics through the use of quizzes or flashcards. If I could advise the one or two people who might actually read this to do anything, It would be to take the time to do research on the study tools available to you. Pretty much everyone nowadays has access to the internet in some form and there is a whole wealth of digital resources which could help you with studying, writing, or anything else you could possibly encounter in your college career.

Below are the resources mentioned in todays post:
