We all have such busy schedules at the end of the school year, and this week has been no exception. Though I was ready to participate in the web conference on May 30, I was not able to make time on the 31 and June 1. However, I viewed the chat logs and have gained more information with regard to our comprehensive exam. The example of the comprehensive exam provided in the discussion was extremely helpful, as were the link and example shared by other students in the web conference. I, too, am a visual learner, and it helps to see how someone else has followed the rubric. I look forward to more time to devote to my comprehensive exam next week and the next web conference on the 11th.
Participation in Tuesday's webcast was very helpful, and I had viewed the chat log from the previous web conference to get details on current assignments. This has been a very overwhelming week between EOY data, moving to another classroom, attending school functions and meetings, as well as other obligations. The webcasts have helped to shed more light on the expectations for the internship.
As I reviewed the chat log for the June 11 web conference, I noticed a more significant shift from professor-led to intern-led; and as interns gain a better grasp of the expectations, they are taking more initiative to guide others with their discoveries. It is encouraging and discouraging at the same time. I realize my classmates are devoting many hours of intense research and reflections to their progress, and I am struggling to keep up with assignments. The web conference has given me insight into some of the issue others are having. The bottom line that I read is to keep up with the suggestions made by the IA. Finishing up an extremely overwhelming week should allow me to devote much more time to my weekly assignments, and I am praying that I can catch up to where I should be in weeks 4 and 5.
