Strategies for self empowerment

In this course, you will produce a series of Blog entries to be shared with your
colleagues. Blogs help facilitate a meaningful and more informal classroom
environment—one that fosters dialogue, interaction, and the dissemination of ideas in a
functional platform (Kuo et al., 2017). Blogs also promote community-building and a
collaborative learning approach through the sharing of ideas. Although this blog may
function somewhat like a discussion, it’s aim is to be more open-ended and informal in
terms of sharing perspectives, thoughts, and experiences on a given prompt.

For this first Blog, you will reflect on your academic and professional experiences and
write about strategies you have employed, or would like to employ, to help empower
you to succeed as an online doctoral student.

Kuo, Y.-C., Belland, B. R., & Kuo, Y.-T. (2017). Learning through blogging: Students’ perspectives in
collaborative blog-enhanced learning communities. Educational Technology and Society, 20(2), 37–50.

• Address the following in your Blog entry:
• Describe at least one strategy you have used (academically and/or professionally)

in the past that empowered you in one or more of the following areas: planning,
time management, studying, or effective technology use, and explain how this
strategy may help ensure your success in your program of study and in
completing your DNP degree requirements. Be specific and provide examples.

• Describe at least one strategy you have not yet used and explain why. Explain
how this strategy may be beneficial to you, given your personal strengths and
areas in need of improvement. Be specific and provide examples.

• Read a selection of your colleagues’ entries.

To prepare:

• Review the Writing Strategies Resources found in this week’s Learning Resources.
• Review the Walden DNP Resources found in this week’s Learning Resources.
• Reflect on any strategies you have used (academically and/or professionally) in the

past that empowered you in one or more of the following areas: planning, time

management, studying, or effective technology use, and consider how these
strategies may help ensure your success in your program of study and in completing
your DNP degree requirements.

• Consider any strategies you have not yet used and why. Consider how these
strategies may be beneficial to you, given your personal strengths and areas in need
of improvement. Be specific and provide examples.
