wk 4 readings

The readings up to this point have been poignant. This week's readings made me cry. I'm sure it was an accumulated effect of the stress of the project work, the time so close to graduation, and the emotionality that goes along with being a teacher.

My some of my favorite parts of the reading that I'm going to remember are:

1. TBFI- The Beyond "F%$#" It point. I have done things for myself for a long time, my final project included. It may not be at 75% by the end of this week, but it already has generated outside interest and become something of a real asset to me. It's what I set out to do and become one month when Dr. Deason first mentioned the idea of an "Instructional Designer". I knew then that for the first time ever, I knew what I wanted to be when I grew up.FOr years I had been looking across for the next best thing when I should have just looked up.

2. Be the Board. This one took me a few paragraphs to get, but I was already here anyways. This brought up painful memories, but also creative resolutions how to not let that on my board ever again.

I'm sure there are others- it's been hard to get down as much blogging as I wanted to this week because of time; ironically- I don't even usually like blogging!
