Journal 3

In this learning modules like the last I learned something new, which I love doing in this class. One of the students had posted about FDA and about how not all drugs are not tested by them and just put on the shelves at stores, which I've never really thought about, I don't really look at the bottles on the vitamins that I take to look for if it is FDA approved since they are recommended by my doctor, but that made me want to maybe take a closer look at the vitamins I am taking. That was a good point to make to people in that discussion. Also I enjoy reading other peoples point a views teaches me others thoughts on drugs and the things that are being discussed. I'm extremely opened minded and love to hear other peoples views it will help in the future and help me to always learn more. I posted about drug courts for my discussion question and got great feed back and also learned a little more about the 12 step program, which I think is a huge thing in the road to recovery.  I plan on doing more research on that topic more. Like always you had great feed back on all my post and will help me in the future not just with this class but other classes I am taking online, greatly appreciated. I feel I am posting to the best of my ability and always looking at what everyone is posting either on my post and on others. I didn't find any words that I didn't know in this module either.

Journal 2

In this learning module, I learned a lot of new things and also learned more about this I had been wondering about for a while, such as the things about genetics causing drug addiction or being part of it. I had done research about that topic a little bit last semester but didn't do much and with this class I was able to actually look it up in my textbook and do more research on the internet. I enjoy to see things in numbers like the statistics in most of the links I posted in the discussion, it really helps me to see how big or small the problem is that is being discussed, I learned how big of a problem drugs in the workplace can really be and was also able to put my own personal experience in it. I also enjoyed what others had to say about my research and the question I posted. Peoples view and thoughts I enjoy then it makes me want to do more research on there questions and find out more. I liked that you replied to all my post telling me what I was doing right and wrong, it really helps me to improve my work. I feel I put in the right amount of time with my discussions I actually write out my discussions by hand to make sure I have the right amount of information and everything is correct, grammar, enough information and said the correct way. There weren't any new words that I learned in this learn module, most of the things that I posted I knew and what others posted I knew.
