This week has been stressful, but a good learning experience. It seemed like everything was due, and actually, it was. The trimester ends next week, the community foundation scholarships are due today, and the college I want to go to tells me their decision today. It seemed like I got nothing done this week in this class since most of my focus was elsewhere, but really, quite a lot happened. I learned how to create effective slides that capture the audience's interest and keeps them focused on what you are saying. As I continued to read my book, I found that I unknowingly fixed a problem I had with my independent reading project in the beginning of the trimester. When I first made my independent reading proposal, the overall theme was too broad. I decided to fix it later but never got around to it. However, this week when I looked back at my original ideas, I found that as I had read my books, my ideas had changed for the better. In the beginning I was going to focus on change, but while reading the books I chose, in my mind the main idea went from just change, to change within a family setting, an idea that is much less broad and easier to work with. Thus, I changed my guiding questions and worked out my main idea. Along with all I learned about making slides look professional, this week was fairly productive, even if I didn’t see it as first. https://www.hanselman.com/blog/ProductivityVsGuiltAndSelfLoathing.aspx
