The assignments for my class "Teaching Reading and Writing" are actually 4 tasks and one assignment.
I've just completed task #2 - only a week and a bit overdue   But so glad it's off my back!task 1 = 15% task 2 = 10% task 3 = 5% if it's late get automatic 0% task 4 = 10% and the assignment is worth ... yup, 60% Will do either a "review of research, theory and practice on an issue affecting the teaching of reading and/or writing and show the pratical applications to your teaching situation" or "design a unit of work on reading or writing which is ready to use. Comment on the features of your design." I did say to the lecturer that I wanted to do research (that's another choice) but he felt that there wasn't enough time to get all the research permission stuff organised. Hmmm wondre if he was fobbing me off? He suggested instead that I do the review and then when/if I do a research class, I've already done half the work.task 3 is due this Friday but will get on to it tomorrow (Wed). Friday is a public holiday so I have three days to knuckle down and catch up on the readings. Actually, come to think of it, I have to crank out #3 tomorrow because we have a work meeting Thursday afternoon ... suppose I still have up to lunchtime Fri to submit. Have to write a model book report on a graded reader and respond to two others'. Alrighty, going to CHILL OUT for the rest of the evening and not. feel. guilty!

i am really starting to get excited about school now. At first i was nervous, now it's pure excitement.. i need to go shopping for a stethoscope and bandage scissors, some all navy blue scrubs and white nursing shoes once back.. Then i need to go pick up my books at the College, get my class schedule and tie up any loose ends.... i found out that i will be taking my labs and clinicals at the University rather than the college.. That's a good thing, distancewise... And all of this is such GOOD things for Us and Our future... So giving this my all!

So exciting!
I am really stoked to be back in the books but just realized I have several hours worth of study ahead of me this weekend if I want to get ahead of the game in time for Reunion. There are 3 tests scheduled during the time I will be at Reunion. Luckily, I can take them all online but it will mean I need to be prepped way before then and at least have some very good notes ready. Yikes!

I've been in school less than 3 weeks and have had 4 quizzes and one big test. I am carrying a perfect score in all of my classes so far but I definitely have developed some anxiety about performing.
Loving being back in school and getting to meet so many interesting folks!

hehe. when I was in school for my bachelors in Criminology just over a year ago I hardly ever read. Just enough to do the homework. So I'm the opposite with this and since my studies are very interesting to me I have to take the time now to go back and actually read and enjoy my books. I am considering going back to school again sometime. What I'm trying to figure out is what to do to make it a lifelong career. I'm thinking either a double major in Psychology also or a Masters in some sort of Law Enforcement. I would love to get into teaching! Great thread and great shares! |

It was such a wonderful first day as a brand spankin' new college girl.
Today was Orientation day, got to know my instructors, and got a tour of the labs, which i loved. It's laid out like a hospital with beds, patients (mannequins) and all of the hospital gear for practice.. We got the lists of everything we need, specifically, from medical instruments to scrubs and colors to book list.. We had opportunities to get to know the other students, and got our workbooks and forms to fill out and hand in, etc. i need to set up a complete physical, a criminal check and get my immunizations forms to hand in from my doctor, and need to get all of my things ready before my first lab and clinical. i have classes Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, all day and got my schedule for the entire year... Anatomy and Physiology will be the hardest subjects i think out of the long list of them.. i am really looking forward to getting into this though, i really, really enjoyed my first day!

Tonight, i am up to my ears in homework. But so needed to find an avenue to take a few minutes, get my thoughts together, figure out where i am at with all of this, evaluate and self- motivate, and then to be completely friggin' grateful. So here i am. Completely overwhelmed, but 100% loving it. The only part i am having a hard time with is making the financial part of it work out.. i am doing this on my own. i've taken a small loan to pay the tuition, however i am working full time while doing full time studies and it's not balancing very well.. So i've had to let go of some work hours, which in turn is hard to make ends meet.. So, i'm stressing it. HOWever, i am loving my classes so much. Tonight i am working on some assignments that are due by tomorrow & Tuesday.. i have two tests on Tuesday as well, one on Medical Terminology and one on Anatomy and Physiology. And i have about 10 chapters to read, along with some modules to go through as well.. And exercises, and.........yeah, i'm overwhelmed, but SOOO loving it.. Regardless of how hard my courses are, regardless of how this is stepping way out of my comfort zone, and regardless of how chaotic and overwhelmed i am at this very moment, i am sitting here with the biggest smile on my face because i know i am SO loving that i am taking big steps forward in my career, AND knowing i am going to love every single bit of my first year of Nursing.. When people say ewwwww, no way.. i am saying i'll do it.. i cant wait to try things and learn, i'm loving this.. And so grateful for this opportunity! i made a big decision today to further my nursing career, and i know this will be exactly what i want! i can do this.. i'll stress, i'll worry, i'll work really hard - but i've soo got this! i hope you are all excelling and loving your courses so far! Remember to breathe! i've been reminded tonight! It helps, muchly!

Assuming all still goes well. I'll know at the reunion if it went well |

Good luck to everyone!

i'm really surprising myself.. pulling some pretty good marks, loving the projects and essays.. and Lab days are SO great, i have learned so much already.. Information overload even! Really lovin' my first year of nursing so far, and feeling more confident that i can do this..Pretty content with everything. The only struggle i am having right now, is time management & balance. my children (teenagers, 19 & 16) are making this really difficult on me. They don't help me around here at all, and now is when i could really use it.. i'm working a full time job, and going to school full time.. So, i really need to work on better time management, and reprogramming teenagers..heh Otherwise, it's all starting to come together for me! Anatomy and Physiology is hard, but definitely a fave course along with medical terminology.. Nursing concepts and elder concepts i'm really grooving as well.. Interpersonal Communications and has been interesting too! It's not easy balancing everything, but i'm pretty proud of myself !.

ACK!
The Reunion really put a kink in my study routine (and not the good kind of kink!). Luckily, the test I didnt study for that I had to take last Tuesday night was all multiple choice. I made a 99% but only because I had actually read the chapters once and the information sunk in as it was supposed to. I have probably 6 hours worth of study ahead of me today before I take an online test tonight and need to get caught up on a significant amount of reading for another one on Thursday night. Also have a group project due in another class and I seem to be the only one in our group with any sense of urgency around it being due on Wednesday!! I HATE group projects!

Another Sunday full of study. Jackhammer works all day today which gives me a nice window to get the bulk of it done.
I had to read and test online for a chapter that ended up being 50 pages worth of shit. Then on Tuesday night, I have another exam and 2 hours worth of lecture. Then on Thursday night I have a unit test on 4 chapters and a live speech on our group project. Then I have a huge paper due by Midnight Friday night. This week is going to be CRAZY. .gif "Say What?")
