Topic 3 Managing Your GCU Experience After you have attended your College Kick-off, answer the following questions. Record your responses to all questions on this document (the boxes will expand should you require more space).

What are the clubs, learning communities or professional organizations specific to your program? How likely are you to join one of these organizations? Which one interests you the most, why? (minimum 100 words)

There was a lot of things going on when I went to the CCOB college kick-off. The two clubs/ learning communities that really caught my attention were the sports management table and the ACE center table. I was really interested in the ACE program because they could help if you lost or need help on an assignment. I will be seeing them a good amount because if get lost and confused very easy with homework. I was told the locations of all the ACE centers and times they are open. For some of the locations they won’t have some of the subjects you are seeking help for but there will be one that will.

Set and share a goal for how you will become involved in a learning community, club, or organization. Discuss how involvement in these types of groups could positively affect you as a student? (minimum 100 words)

One goal I want to set is to visit the ACE center at least two or three times a week depending on my schedule. I feel like if I go to the ACE center, I will be able to get help on good ways to study and even help on my work. I can be shown certain ways on how to do things in a more understanding way. I feel like if I go the ACE center I can better myself as a student and possible be a part of ACE in my future here at GCU. I know going to ACE two to three time a week will benefit me as a student.

What do you need to achieve academically to be successful in the future? Are there any GPA requirements, volunteer hours, or internships associated with your future career

I will need to push myself to the fullest to make it so I can do well academically and pass my classes. I know for a lot of majors and courses that there are some GPA requirements and some volunteer hours and possible some internships that might be associated with what you are pushing towards as a career. If you set a goal for yourself and push yourself to that goal or maybe even past that goal you will be able to succeed with ease. If you are falling behind visit and use all the resources that are available to you. For example, ACE

goals? (minimum 100 words) Review the University Snapshot page on the GCU website to locate and explain GCU's Mission and Vision, Five Mission Competencies, and GCU’s Christian Identity and Mission. (Minimum 100 words total)

The GCU Academic Catalog lists the university's General Education (GE) Competencies. Note: While the General Education Competencies support the GCU Mission competencies, they are not the same competencies. (The GE Competencies are listed in the box to the right.) Review Ch. 2 of the University Success Guide to locate and describe the five GE Competencies in your own words. (Minimum 100 words total) List the steps you would take, and anyone you may need to contact in order to resolve the following situations:

or even a teacher that is giving out help for a class. Those will help you stay on top of all your need GPA’s and assignments.  GCU Mission and Vision: GCU’s mission is to educate people to lead and serve  5 Mission Competencies: GCU’s 5 mission competencies are 1. become global citizens 2. Critical thinkers 3. Effective communicators 4. Responsible leaders 5.

GCU wants to create an environment that everyone can feel safe and loved. GCU wants to deminstraight commitment through local and global outreach like student ran ministries and more such as GCU sponsored events University Foundations These documents will help define who we truly are and a school and as a community by following the Christian principles  Effective Communication Truly understand how god’s word impacts others and yourself emotionally and intellectually but also take on new values 

 Christian Worldview Graduates will be able to understand and express their aspects of the Christian worldview  Critical Thinking Understand clarity and logic in thought. Ask the right questions to pursue knowledge and know what you are seeking in it  Global Awareness, Perspectives and Ethics

 Failing a class: I would ask myself if it’s my fault that I am failing by being lazy and not turning in work or is the class just to hard. If the class was too hard, I would take to my counselor about switching out

 Slept through an exam/test: I would contact my teacher and ask about a retake

 Missed an assignment due date: Understand the late penalty and still turn in the assignment

 Feeling nervous or overwhelmed: Take a step back and breath. Maybe do something that doesn’t have anything to do with school to take my mind off it

 Scheduled for the wrong course/class: Contact my counselor and see what I can do about switching out of that course

 Cannot log into the digital classroom or the GCU Library:...
