Reflection: In 75-100 words reflect on the following:  List at least three GCU resources (ex. Library, ACES, Career Connections, etc) you will use during your academic career and include how you will engage with those resources for the entirety of your time at GCU. (1.2)  Describe what academic success skills you will need to improve upon or master in order to be successful at GCU (ex. note taking, study skills, time management, etc,). (1.1) I would be using the library because it has articles and books. I could look up ideas or information that is going to be useful for me. I could also use the Student success Center to look up different things and resources. And I could also use Academic and Career Excellence Resources it has Career development resources, career and major exploration, career connections first year experience and graduate school preparation. I will need all of these to help me navigate through online college classes. I would need all academic skills to improve upon to be successful. Time management would be number one on the list and study skills and note taking and scheduling.
