Myths and Folklore

Week 15 Reflection

I cannot believe that this semester is basically over. I am so glad this class enabled us to tap into our creative sides. The use of blogger has actually inspired me to take notes this way. I love that you can label it and it can be accessible on any computer without having to email it to yourself. The tech tips have definitely helped me in improving how I take notes on blogger, especially how to add YouTube videos on here. I also liked that it made me see that it is nice to write about things other than stats and research. Though we did a lot of writing for this class, it wasn't as daunting as I thought it would be. I am really proud of my story book project. It was also really cool seeing everyone else's creative projects as well. Just wanted to add this video to end the class on a high note. Have a good holiday everyone!

Week 15: Reading Evaluations

My Favorite Readings for the Semester:

My advice to the new batch of students coming in next semester is to only do one reading diary a week. Since it is only two points, it can easily replaced by an extra credit assignment, something I wished I had realized sooner in the semester. This way, it doesn't seem like so much reading. Also, using bullet points in your reading diaries helps out a lot. At first, I thought the balance between all the reading, writing, and commenting was going to be difficult. However, once you get the hang of it, it really wasn't too bad. I also really recommend taking advantage of the librovox audio. You can listen to the stories all while checking your emails, facebook, ect. You can also download Google Speak it! Directions here. Good Luck to all the newbies and Good Job to my fellow classmates!

Week 14 Review

My, oh my. Where did the time go? I can't believe it is already December and 2015 is coming to an end!

Nov. 30

I saw this on the announcement blog and wanted to share. I guess school is a special kind of hell, but at least we can get out! I can relate most to layer I, V, and VI.

Week 15 Tech Tip: Embed a Facebook Photo

Hello, I have some great news! My cat went missing three months ago and on Monday, my roommate found him at the Norman Animal Shelter! He was literally one street over hanging out with a bunch of cats. My baby is back home and i could not be any happier about it!

Week 15: Growth Mindset

Welcome to my very last growth mindset quote for the semester! I was so inspired from reading these great quotes and memes, that I wanted to incorporate some of my favorites on to my chalk board calendar I have hanging up. It was blank for the longest. However, after hearing about Carol Dweck and her teachings on the growth mindset, I knew I had to incorporate it into my every day life.
