While this web conference was helpful and had a lot of clarifying information, I am still just so overwhelmed in this course. Just completing the assignments each week and getting them turned in has me almost drowning, I cannot even begin to dive in to all these other forms and logs. I really do not know anything else to do other than to focus on the assignments right now and getting them done, then after February 21st spending time focusing on all these other aspects. The most beneficial part of tonight’s web conference was Dr. Mason and Dawn clarifying my APA questions. I have used the book and searched the internet but still end up partially confused. I am glad to know that the references are double spaced, no extra line in between entries, and need the hanging indentation. Amazing I’ve tried all of these separately but never all together J Also, I got clarified that the citation in the paper DOES in fact include both authors names when there are two. It was also reiterated the importance of going back and fixing the papers from the previous week. My comments from Dawn were to go back and format my paper to have the clear three sections required by the reflection. At first, I was excited thinking this writing format would be easier but after doing half my reflections this week in that format it is actually taking me twice as long and my papers are now twice as long. My brain formats it by assignment in the course, since there are usually two or three we are reflecting about. I really hope this format becomes more user friendly to me and very quickly! I often feel like I already answered the questions of the last section in the previous sections, etc. For now, I’m just trying to get things done one at a time and somehow keep my life going at the same time!
