Under the Library tab is a vast amount tools to help students with many different areas of their studies. I will talk about those I have used previously and intend to explore more within the future of my experience at Axia. I have used the University Library to do research and have searched through all three of the databases available. I have also used the Center for Writing Excellence to evaluate my papers for spelling, grammar, APA style and plagiarism.
The library tutorials are the only ones I have used so far but I am sure there will be a time when I will need to use some of the others available. The Element K tutorials may come in handy for helping me with using Microsoft Office programs or some of the other desktop applications I may need to use in my chosen career.

These labs are here to post questions and gets answers that may help me to gain a better understanding of the material, tools or procedures to complete my assignments.

[...] People have been misquoted for centuries. Another form of fabrication is to cite someone for information you did not get from him or her, either by making the whole thing up or by putting any name down to make it look good. Deception can happen in two basic ways. One example is to tell the facilitator that you missed a deadline for a false reason, like was sick” when in actuality you just did not do it. Another way, which goes along with plagiarism, is to say you wrote something when really someone else did or you copied it from somewhere. [...]
[...] I then switch to human services. I know I want to get my Associate's degree and I am thinking of getting my Bachelor's degree too. Here is where career and educational goals go hand in hand. Knowing what I want to do help me to decide how much schooling I will need. I want to go into social work so my short term goal is to get my Associate's degree.
