Week 7 Update

Week 7:
So far so good! I had never thought CYBR 515 class would be very challenging. It's not because I am getting a bad grade, but it's because of lack of resources. I know I am not that bad searching for resources online or library. Thanks to the professor who is very responsive and provides guidance if asked. I need to survive six more weeks then I am done. Despite close to finishing my Masters, I still have issues writing especially with the grammar. I take professor's suggestion seriously and try my best to improve. Sometimes when you are close to due and don’t have enough time, there is always a chance of mistakes. I am not a procrastinator though. I start my assignments early. The discussion board has been a great place to learn. The professor making to choose from the different topic is also helpful, so many students don’t end up writing on the same subject. Since this is my final semester, I have to say that online college is not easy. It gives students flexibility, but that doesn’t mean it is any easier than the traditional format. I would highly recommend others to go online if they want to be independent learners. You don’t get to ask questions directly to the professor being an online student, but you are saving time and improving yourself by doing research and asking a question on the class online forum.  I am glad I decided to go back to college, and I am close to finishing. As long as you are dedicated, finish assignments on time, you are good. You should think twice going for masters if you don’t love writing. I am more of a math and science student who likes solving a problem but not necessarily just writing. In the Cybersecurity field, there were many technical assignments, but you still have to write a report for the assignment. For example: if you design a wireless solution for a company, you still write a lengthy report how you would implement the design. Wow, I went little too far sharing my experience. Let's get back to regular topic "What's trending?".
