Snow Day Thoughts

It seems like this is the first day I've gotten to sit down and really relax in awhile. Lately, it seems like everything is go go go. I've gone from feeling super overwhelmed in the Web 2.0 class to just overwhelmed. I posted my video since I wanted to film the snow anyway, but I really hate doing videos. I don't mind doing videos using Camstudio, but if I have to be in front of the camera...no thanks.

I really don't like that I have to grade my fellow classmates. When I'm grading my students, it's not such a big deal since I gave them a task and I'm grading it according to department standards. Grading a classmate is a little bit odd for me since I always tend to think everything is fine. I've never been good about offering criticism to other people unless they specifically ask ("Does this sound right here?" "How do you think I could expand this more"). Also, since a lot of the technologies that we are using are new to me, I'm always impressed when people can use any of them effectively.

This will be a good evening to catch up on watching the tons of videos I need to and then thinking about what can be said. And enjoy the snow (now that I've shoveled it off the driveway).
