S554 Blog Posting #3 Floundering

Hello again class. Since we are not yet in the thick of our projects, I will just talk a little about my feelings about last week's class.
First, I appreciated Dr. Ball's comments about the positive aspects of floundering. and struggling during the learning process. She is so right...I am the queen of flounderers (sp?) and strugglers. However, during our last (my first) class, I heard a lot of very intelligent and rapid fire comments. (Not quite what Garfield calls 'snappy patter,'), but enough to be just a tad intimidating. Was anyone else kind of out to sea last Friday or was it just me?

Even though I have taken a couple of project management classes I still get just a little weak in the knees when I think about teams working toward a deadline. In a way it's fun. But then it can also be frustrating and extremely challenging.
Just FYI, I am a pretty good writer/editor in case anyone needs an anal retentive English major- type on their team.
I really like having blogs included in classes..they give you another way to communicate. It's hard to do that in class, and most people do not have a lot of time to get together in a community college setting.
Also, I really liked the Adobe Connect class, but I would imagine having to monitor and control the Connect class would not be as enjoyable as just being a part of it.
