I have reached my goal! Slowly but surely, I have gained a new friend in the technology. I now appreciate that hope leads to endurance and endurance leads to joy. I am blogging with more confidence now. What an effective way of sharing I have found this to be!
I must state that as the class continues to progress, I feel reassured that I am making progress. In evaluating my grasp of sharing and using blogs, I think I can now handle most of it very well. The difficulty arises when I do not practice, then I tend to forget and become frustrated. This feeling of frustration is often short lived since we have become a community of learners in the class, helping each other to achieve mastery.
To improve my situation I have been reading the resources shared by the tutors, this makes the task easier. Information posted on the portal have kept me afloat and functioning. The question and answer sessions we engage in as a class and sometimes as a small group, really serve to keep me focused.
I am eternally grateful to my tutors and my classmates for their unending support. Remember, we may not always be able to do everything on our own; at times we may need to get help, or to render assistance. This course requires a lot of practice but much more sharing. The race is not for the swiftest, but for the one who can endure.
Yes Merle, if the race was for the swift I might have come in dead last! I procastinated to even start the blog. If you look at the blog addresses you will see mine on the last page. I was stymied by the process and like you I had friends made on this course who held my hand and walked me through the process.
ReplyDeleteJust look at me now, I am making posts, commenting, uploading pictures and making links. Most importantly, I am enjoying blogging and looking forward to practical applications in the classroom.
All the best in your portfolio.
Regards
No, Nisha, here I am on your dead right! What a thrill to post a blog! The greater thrill is to receive a response to it. Do you think that our tutors would be compassionate to the fact that there are 'struggling bloggers'? Preparing a response is not the hurdle. The hurdle is the publishing of it: making the connection between writing the blog and publishing it.
