Lifelong Learner

 

I like to learn. September is all about learning, with kids going to school or homeschooling. We all want to learn, even when we are older. I love to learn! I just finished a course, a free course, with Alison Courses. 

 

All their classes seem to be free, but it costs money to get an actual, physical certificate for completing a course. But you can download a free PDF, every time you get done with one! These are neat, you can include them with resumes, if you want to show your learning. I'll admit this course I just did was pretty easy. I enjoy more of a challenge, usually, but I needed something to do, and it was timely--about current events, so it really fit the bill! This one was about the novel coronavirus. Not a lot of fun! And I wish I had finished earlier, because they ADDED to this course! Alright, but there was at least one mistake in the course, like they would vacillate between, "there is no vaccine" to "there is one vaccine." But I did it! I finished it already. Here is what I got for doing it:

Whoo! Whoo! I did it ALL! What did I learn? What new thing? Not anything! I'll be honest, I've been studying this thing voraciously since it came out. But not everyone has, I'll give them that. That's true. They give out awards, for studying:

You can't beat that! Well, you can and I'm going for the Silver Medal now. ha ha!

The other course that I'm doing now is 'Declutter Your Life', which is really useful to learn how to do. I'll let you know how it goes. This one is a little different than the other one, this has a lot of videos to watch, and the one about the virus just had stuff to read and a quiz at the end. If anyone wants to check them out, here's the link for them:
