COVA has definitely changed my mindset in several ways. For starters, I no longer see value only in things that can be measured or counted. I am now more focused on the process of learning rather than just the outcome. This journey has also made me more aware of how my mind works and how I can best learn new information.
Additionally, COVA has helped me to become much more aware of the interconnectedness of all life and how everything we do affects others (and vice versa). This awareness has made me far more conscious about my daily choices and their potential impacts.
The most valuable lesson I have learned thus far is the importance of content curation and
regular updates to ensure relevance and usefulness over time. The ePortfolio is the perfect platform to do just that. Some factors contributing to ePortfolio persistence beyond the ADL program of study are the ability to update quickly and add content, the portability between different devices and platforms, rich multimedia support, and graphing or visualization capabilities.
Overall, COVA's approach to valuing what matters most has certainly opened my eyes and mind to a different (and often better) way of thinking about and interacting with the world around me.
