Blog 7

What stands out to you in your learning?
What really stands out for me is the fact that a lot of our work will be displayed to possibly important people in our community and not just random parents of students. And the fact that we will be creating work that will be sold just adds to the level of professionalism needed (even though it isn't thoroughly exercised.) Another thing that came up when I was reading the syllabus was that we were going to study industrialization. I am very interested in that specific topic and studied it before.

What is working well in this class?
I am definitely seeing an improvement in my writing while using the writing tips; normally I have a bad habit of not starting the action early and that made my writing weak. I also appreciate the blog system, it eliminates the printer factor, no more paper jams or lack of ink.

What can you do to build upon your successes?
Besides listening to instructions, doing some challenge agreements wouldn't be a bad idea for the future projects.

What very specific, concrete & manageable steps can you take to make the most of your opportunities to learn in this class?
Although I barely do it myself, asking questions and participating in class is a very constructive thing to do. Getting more sleep could counter-act the lunch time crash. As I said before taking on challenge agreements.

What are your goals for the next few weeks in class?
My first goal would have to be getting more sleep so I can improve my performance in class. Another one would be to participate more in class but lately I haven't been too confident in my speech patterns, which could be blamed on my lack of sleep. I also plan to take on challenge agreements, and just follow instructions in class.
