2nd Blog Post

I have to say professor, I really missed the assignment videos you provided last week and for your other course. They make the assignments a lot easier to understand. I had a hard time looking for articles on the professional publications. One particular publication had more articles on the subject of interest I chose. I want to include something about positivity in my courses as i feel that a positive attitude helps student reach their goals. I found some interesting articles on giving feedback i think will help me when the time comes to give constructive feedback to my students. When I searched for the job postings i found i have no experience at all. I am starting from the ground up. I have to learn everything. I feel like I'm further behind from the other students because most of them seem to be in the teaching field already. They have some concept of teaching student already where I still have to learn that too. But I'm keeping a positive mind just like all those articles i looked up. I know the beginning can seem overwhelming but in the end I am staying positive that i can achieve my goal. Now i have that experience to share with my students when they feel overwhelmed at all the stuff I'm going to give them.

1st Blog Post

EDIT 4520 1st Blog Post

This class is a little harder compare to the 4300. I had more trouble with this class. The timeline was particularly hard for me. I still haven't submitted it. I was working on it but didn't really understand what I needed to hand in. I will hand it in tomorrow. I will probably get a lower grade but I need more time to really understand it and work on it. Any want to quit now. With all these classes I feel super over whelmed and am contemplating quitting. Most of the material is brand new to me and it makes it very hand to understand. I have to read the material over and over again just to start understanding the new concepts I'm trying to learn. I will try and settle myself this week and try and get into the rhythm of the classes. Hopefully within a few days things will start to fall into place and I will get the hang of these assignments.
