I am still on the fence about the whole signing in to class from home idea. Yes, I LOVE being able to stay at home, login to class, and participate, get my assignments, and move on with my day/week... but at the same time it is so hard! It could just be me... but when I am home doing class, I am also trying to make dinner, tend to the kids and their needs, as well as make sure my new born is taken care of and that I do no regret not getting to spend every minute that I have with her.... Being in class online for 3 classes 2 days a week really takes away from my family... But at the same time, if I was to take the same three classes in seat, I would probably complain just has much because I wouldn't be at home... I DON'T win at this game... YET :D
This week, I enjoyed the activities that we did in class, because they were keeping me involved in the class. My favorite activity was the emailed house activity when we each were given the same scenario, but we each acted as different individuals in the process. Very neat, and fun to interact with.
I am having a hard time getting my lesson plans all together. I do not understand how to incorporate the thinking maps and the fact pyramid.. if anyone has any suggestions please fill me in!
Thank you :D
Enjoy your weekend!!
I totally agree with you about having class on line. It is nice, but at the same time it can be challenging. I enjoyed the same activity. It allowed us to see how everyone thought differently. I am having a hard time with the thinking maps and pyramids as well. I wish we could just do the lesson plans without them. I just keep telling myself, "Hang in there, you are about done."
ReplyDeleteI am in the same boat. I am old fashion and like classes in seat, maybe because that is how I always have done it. Yet, with school and family this is easier to sit and do. I am warming up to the idea.
ReplyDeleteLOL, I am the same way! I am having so much trouble since I cannot judge from your faces how things are going, what you understand and what you don't. That being said, I llike being at home, with my pups, and my computer!
ReplyDeleteI also really enjoyed the activity where we all got emailed about the house and we all had to look at it in different perspectives. I believe a lot of classes would enjoy it
