What a week! It feels like we have been in this course forever, is it really only the end of the first week? Already I have learned so much. I had no idea that the UMW Domains even existed before, let alone how to create one. Yet now here I am, posting blogs. I didn’t […]

After getting over the initial shock of having to watch a 2 hour presentation and then slugging through the 8 minute introduction, I was very surprised to have enjoyed this talk so much. I like how he started out the presentation explaining how everyone is trying to find their sense of self. The whole reason […]

First of all, it is once again reassuring to know that I am not the only one fumbling along. As the week goes by it has definitely gotten so much easier, but it is also comforting knowing that I am not alone. I am excited at the number of people we have in very different […]

So far, so confusing! The theme seems to be that as I get excited that I am doing something right, I get an email to the class explaining how what I just did was incorrect. That or my posts/tweets just aren’t showing up. But it’s only day #2, so fingers crossed that it starts getting […]

I think I have this FINALLY figured out. Fingers crossed. To the point, the video was very helpful!
