What is your name? Daniel Capul
Are you a graduate student? No, I am a senior at FHSU.
Why did you enroll in this class? My adviser helped me pick my classes and suggested it.
Have you heard of my class or teaching methodology? No, I had not heard of this class or this teaching style. It is not what I am used to, so it will be interesting.
What are your initial thoughts? I am very overwhelmed. I feel like their is a lot of information and I am worried about missing something. I am not a big technology person, so that intimidates me some. I also contemplated dropping the class initially, but I am sticking it out. We can struggle together.
What are your expectations? I expect to get a bigger knowledge set of software programs. I think I will get more comfortable with the technology (I hope).
Did you sign up for the free Plectica account? Yes, I did.
Did you join the facebook group? No, I have not yet. I do not get on facebook very often, so I havent had a chance to join. I will try to get on by the end of the week though.
Daniel,
Great job! I’m glad you decided to stick it out with the course! Please join the FB group if you haven’t already.
I think we are all in this together! I’m sure after the few few weeks it will be a lot easier for us all. Good luck!
Hi Daniel! I admit I am also feeling very intimidated and overwhelmed. I joined the Facebook group and have been slowly reading through posts today. I highly recommend it!
Hey Daniel, I too am feeling overwhelmed. I like to think I am tech savvy, but this stuff is new to me. With today’s technology there’s always some “new hotness” that we need to learn about or adapt too. My job tends to come up with new updates or systems weekly! Or I have to come up with a new system. I will admit I’m not very creative and tend to be to a critic over any new system to find bugs or areas of improvements. Good luck this semester as we learn and struggle through this together.
