Week four!

     I am starting to feel like I bit off more than I can chew. So far classes are getting more and more interesting. They are however getting more demanding. I am enjoying learning so much about the learning process as well as the design process involved in creating an online course. I have reflected on past courses in my undergrad work and also some of my courses now. Some are/have been ineffectively designed. Teachers only assign readings and expect us to learn the material. I don't even know what their voices sound like! I am grateful for classes that provide interactive projects that and appreciate lecture videos(even the long ones). I feel like I do find myself being overly critical sometimes. I plan to use those points for improvements as strengths when practicing designing myself.
     I am enjoying the idea of the collaborative assignment. I am not being very creative so I liked the plans my classmates came up with. I am nervous for the web 2.0 site web hangout I am not sure what to expect but my website is relatively straightforward. Right now the main thing I need to direct my attention to is not dropping the ball on due dates and not letting my classes become jumbled up in my head, especially with work being extra demanding lately.  Juggling the needs for a school district's technology needs and four classes makes me feel like I'm in the circus.
