The Countdown

3 1/2 Weeks remain in the term. It is vitally important that if you want to earn a credit in this course that you have demonstrated approximately 45 hours of work for a credit. It is difficult to know- in this situation- if no one blogs on a particular day for a special set of reasons or if people were distracted by the glorious internet. Were you reading? I'm not sure...

And I can be patient and understanding, but I won't compromise the meaning of a credit. A credit is a credit and though I've said time and again that this does not constitute an ideal learning situation, I have provided you with directions, tasks and feedback on your work. To the best of my ability I am creating a course that you can navigate with relative ease. I will happily conference in person with people, meet you after school or respond to blogs that ask for more direction, but I need your dedication and work ethic to match my enthusiasm and willingness to help.

Please.

Today's writing prompt: How would you respond to a day without technology? And yes, I realize the irony of this question considering I am asking it in a blogging class. How would you react to no phone, no texting, no computers, tv et al? To me, computer use is compulsive and I might go a bit crazy not being able to check emails or see the latest celeb news on People.com. hehe. Tell me your thoughts.
