Reflection Week - 11
Good Ole Week 11! I am sooooooooooo glad that this week is over, two final exams in one week is enough to throw you overboard. I got a chance to browse over some of the other group projects and they were very informing. I’m not even sure if we were required to submit a reflection this week that shows you how discombobulated I am, between work, school and home, confusion has every right to settle in. I’m starting a new job on Monday for the same company but new division, new duties, new everything so I’m kind of exited about that, I will be working in the Office of Systems as an Application Software Developer. Nothing much other than that so, I’m going to sign out now and work on something else.

Reflection Week - 10
This week has been really stressful. I’ve taken online courses before some partially online/classroom attendance and some totally online. I have never had to do a class project in an online setting; there are pros and cons to this way of learning. #1 You have to have a lot of patience because not everyone in the group will have the same work schedule, some group member may not even be in the same time zone, let alone, country. #2 Participating in a group project online, gives you the avenues of researching more, because everything is done online, it gives you the true perspective of what it means to network because you will have to reach out to other group members to get the job done. This was a tedious experiment as well as a well informed one, but I don’t have any regrets because I work fulltime and I’m a fulltime mother and an online environment suites my schedule more than it would for me to take classes traditionally. I enjoyed being able to create a topic for this weeks discussion thread, that was fun because we each got to ask a question that was of interest to us and we were able to make a contribution to Wikipedia, this was my first time making any changes or contributions to any Wiki’s now I feel like I belong :).
