Taking Stock, Week 14

Getting closer to the end of the semester, I am not where I want to be in a couple of my classes unfortunately.  After being sick for a week, and my daughter being sick as well the following week, I fell behind in a lot of work we were doing and wasn't able to catch back up.  I will be taking a smaller work load next semester so that I can focus on the few classes I will still have as I continue to work full time as well.  Sometimes there just aren't enough hours in the day to complete everything that needs to be done.

Week 8 Reading and Writing

     I still find navigating through all the different sites a little frustrating because different pieces of information are all in different places. A lot of the bigger projects or assignments don’t sync with Canvas and show on the “to-do” list so it takes some extra work to keep everything organized and finish on time. Having the extra credit available is helpful.  English has always been my strongest subject yet I seem to be struggling with this subject the most this semester.      Just staying organized will help with the rest of the semester as well as taking advantage of any and all extra credit available to make up for missing assignments or missed opportunities.

Growth Mindset Week 9

This week I chose Growth Mindset challenge 3. One post that stood out to me, said: "If you want something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done" I've always believed that in order to grow you have to step out of your comfort zone in order to learn something new.  This was a reminder of that.  Another posts talked about just taking advantage of any opportunity that comes along to test yourself and potentially find new interests or ideas.
