Hello students and welcome to Counseling 120,
College and Career Success! Take a look at my video introduction above. Please
make 2 postings this week. For the first posting, introduce yourself
by telling us about your interests, hobbies and what is important in your life
and maybe share a photo or video of yourself. As your second posting, tell us
about your educational journey, why you are taking this class and your goals
and dreams for the future. You can also comment on other students' postings.
This class is especially useful for those of you who want to understand yourself better and choose a major and career that matches your gifts and talents. The class also meets a general education requirement for transfer to state universities. If this is your first class in college, you are off to a good start. If you are a continuing student, there are some great benefits. You will become familiar with some new learning tools that will make your future education easier.
Since the course is online, you can do the work anytime or any place during the week. For best results, be sure to set aside time for working on this class each week and not wait until the last minute to do the work. I look forward to working with all of you this semester.

Fralick’s Introduction
Here is an example of a 100 word introduction:
I am your professor

1978-2007 as a counselor and instructor for this course. I play many roles
in life. I am a Grandmother with 2 young granddaughters. I enjoy
taking care of them frequently and watching them grow. My own children are
grown up and have their own careers and homes. I have my own business and
work with colleges across the country in training faculty to teach college
success courses. I am also the author of your textbook. In my
leisure time I enjoy traveling and being active. I traveled to the Belgium, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Russia and Norway over the summer. It an opportunity to see part of the world I had never seen before.
Marsha Fralick’s Educational Journey
Here is an example of
a 100 word posting.
I attended a small country high school in New
Mexico and was a good student. When I went to the University of New
Mexico, I found that it was a whole new world and I was not prepared for
it. I struggled to be successful in college and had to learn how to listen
to lectures, take notes and prepare for exams. I also had uncertain career
goals. When I started working at a college, I remembered those years that
I struggled and decided to invent a course that would help students to be
successful. It has been a fun and rewarding adventure for the last 35 years.
