I have to admit that this class has been a struggle for me. Having a more experienced background in computers and technology I find myself getting board and not keeping up on classwork as I should. I am allowing myself to put things off and not worry about them because I know I can finish them (well) in about 15 minutes. I am ashamed of this because my goal this term was to stay on top of things and I've allowed myself to fall behind. Worst of all I feel like my attitude has been crappy.
It is a good thing that I have noticed it early and can correct it. I still struggle with my willingness to accept that there could be something for me to learn. My generation seems to think we know it all with computers and I know full well that is not true!
Hey Lindsay,
ReplyDeleteMost classes we struggle with are due to our not getting it or too much work or whatever. But there you are stuggling because it's too easy for you!!! WHAT A PROBLEM, RIGHT? If I remember correctly, you signed up for this class because you were worried about the computer literacy test. WELL, NOW YOU KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW, RIGHT???? I've appreciated your willingness to help those of us less technologically gifted and I hope you figure out a way to make this class work to your advantage.
One way is to concentrate on what is due for other classes and turn those things in for this class as Mike as asked us to do for week 2 assignments. Good luck Lindsay!
Hi Lindsay,
ReplyDeleteI failed to post a comment for week 2 and am now catching up. I apologize! I feel the same way at times. I will definitely know a piece of information and someone else will come back and update my information and then I would feel bad. And there were many weeks that I would begin my assignments the day before the next class and would get stressed out and binge eat. I realized that I need to begin earlier and would better grasp the learning process. You will too. Get started earlier and try to see something new into every assignment!!
