The Year So Far.

What stands out to you in your learning?
The subtle rules that are required when working on something. Such as Randy's writing tips, or the meticulous adjustments we need for working on photoshop and the like. I enjoy how much "OCDness" is required for our work.

What is working well in this class?

I enjoy how each instruction is explained to us before we actually start working. I've always needed a complete set of instructions before I feel ready to start working, so I find it particularly easy to work when Randy explains it to us.

What can you do to build upon your successes?

Maybe start applying this layout of instructions to everything that I do on my own. I could analyze the work that I have to do and set it up in a complete list of instructions before I start working. This would also help me with actually starting my work.

What very specific, concrete & manageable steps can you take to make the most of your opportunities to learn in this class?

People take notes by writing down the big ideas of what the teacher says as a whole. I have trouble with that, so, why not write down the main ideas of each statement? I've tried this to an extent, and I've seen that it works for me.

What are your goals for the next few weeks in class?

I've noticed that while I show an extreme interest in the writing that we've had, I see that I lack interest in US History. I would like to keep this from getting in the way of my work, however, I'm not completely sure how I would go about doing this.
