Each class in the short term will eventually incorporate the smaller details and disciplines to aid in the long term goal of a higher degree. I will have doors open which previously were not available because of the lack of a higher education. Opportunities not enjoyed prior will be multiple and open to be scrutinized by me and my achievement of a higher education. Salary, positions, and of course the ability to advance in the business arena are there for the taking. The tools and assessments which I have acquired in the course will benefit me greatly as I will now be able to use the knowledge in practical application. The tools which I feel will be especially helpful is fundamental writing techniques and methods. Prior to this class my knowledge of how to properly structure sentences using proper grammar and structure of sentences and paragraphs were limited and antiquated. The practice in the My Foundations Lab especially helped me realize the importance of the fundamentals in writing. The online learning experience has and is a benefit for me growing as a student and learning to study with others. This collaborative environment is interesting and helps me with the continued interaction with others sharing the same goal. This incorporates many new aspects and details in my pursuit of a higher education. Writing and communicating with my fellow classmates online has taught me to write...

So accordingly the steps have to be taken, which enables students to understand the importance of these aspects. This is also serious issue for international students. As the students come from different cultures to prosper the higher education they may not be aware of this aspect of not following the academic honesty and plagiarism. I heard few stories in which the few international students are suspended from the school for not following these issues. So this should be taught in the schools in the beginning sections of their classes so that they can understand the severity of the issue. Now on the other aspect faculty perception on the students’ academic honesty is also important. Students who did not understand the importance of the aspects tend to do the work in a wrong way and submit it which results in the academic dishonesty and plagiarism. These aspects may spoil the bond between the students and faculty. According to my knowledge faculty play an important role in the personality development of the students and help them to lead a colorful life. So it is important for the students to maintain a good bond with the faculty for their bright future.
