Week 1 had been much easier for me. I had no classes at university, I could work on the course every day, with the pace one task a day. During Week 2 it was much more difficult because the classes resumed after the winter holiday break, and I found combining teaching and learning a little tougher than I had thought in terms of time. And now here I am writing my blog post and finishing all the assignments on a Sunday afternoon. Do I consider myself to be a late student? Yes, I do! However, I hope to improve next week and fit the coursework into every day of the week, but I think I will first take Monday as a day-off!
I think I have already mentioned that I am happy to be taking this course. Thinking about which group to choose for the final project got me to ponder over all the groups I am teaching and their needs, summarise the technology available in and out of class.
Hi Yana!
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only one struggling!!!
I too had a pretty busy schedule last week. It has been a sea of deadlines, but once everything is done, I mean on Sunday afternoon, I like the sense of sense of satisfaction I get.
I guess it's the same for all of us.

Hello Yana
ReplyDeleteTime management is crucial in online courses, I've noticed. It is easy to fall behind quickly. And the "real world" right in front of us, with work, projects, classes, is difficult to ignore. My advice is just try to keep a steady pace, checking in almost everyday for a little bit. A day offline every now and then isn't a bad idea either.
