Not sure if this will be my last official post or not. . . you just never know with me these days!
Finals are submitted. May be that a few more blog postings should be submitted . . . ;) But, other than that - - YOU'RE DONE!!! Go rest! Relax! Celebrate! Hug and kiss those you love - and heck - why not those you don't!! Surprise someone!
Grading is going well and I truly believe I'll be finished SOON. I'm doing the "harder to grade" projects first. Syntax/Form are finished. Only a couple more Semantics. Then I'm on to Pragmatics. Yes, I've graded a few out of order to give me an idea of what's what and to break up things at times. I've even graded a couple of Finals already.
You all have taught me a lot, as all students do. I've learned that MORE direct instruction is at times necessary and that doesn't have to be lecturing in front of a Power Point. I'm anxious to see what other good tips you have in store for me in the Final. I've also learned many more things about myself, my instruction as well as college students and LEARNING. I'm excited for next semester to roll around (after some REST) and finding ways to continue to grow as an instructor and how I can be a better teacher in 2010.
I wish each of you a wonderful Christmas with those you love the most!
God bless you every one!
