The second week of school is over! For this week, I set out once again to finish this week’s support assignments. I failed to accomplish my goal last week, but I think I will be successful this week. I just have three assignments left to do, and they should not take long. I want to get everything finished before Monday because that is when our next assignments are posted. I do not like to be overloaded.
The content that was addressed this week was a little more complex than the material that was covered last week, but it was not difficult to accomplish. The reading assignments for the week were very computer educational. I learned about MOO. MOO is the means of communication that we will use for our classroom discussions. The e-mail information was also very educational. I learned about expressions and acronyms that I can use when e-mailing others. The current discussions helped me to express how I came to desire to be a speech pathologist. I discussed how my family values education, as well as how I learn and desire to learn. Lastly, I got to submit a topic area that interests me in my field. I chose developmental language milestones.
The processes I used to complete this week’s work involved much discipline from me and my classmate, Julie. Everyday between classes, we go to the library and work on the assignments for this week. It really helps how we work together. We motivate each other to do the work. We decide what assignment we are going to do and on what day. That is tremendously beneficial.
I arrived in many new places in my thinking this week as a result of the many things that I read on the internet. I no longer feel completely comfortable using the internet as a means of paying my credit card bill. I also know that my e-mail is not exactly private. On a positive note, I learned many ways to explore the internet. I also acquired knowledge of acronyms and expression symbols to use when e-mailing others.
As for questions about this week, I really do not have any (of course, I still have the subscription/unsubscription to do). I have enjoyed learning the new things that I have learned this week, and I look forward to becoming more knowledgeable about computers.
