Connections

A quick write-up of today's great conversations:

Distance:
distance = disconnect to distance = perspective

Technique:
I tell my students 'technique is the vehicle that will help you to dance and help you to keep dancing'. This course is teaching technique too look out for it. It is what will help you to do the expressive part. Don't see each module as a 'thing' with 'things' in it see it as part of building a technique that you will continue to use after the course is finished.

Trust:

Read the blogs and past blog posts, look at what you have done in other modules, look at other module handbooks.

Perfect:
If you woke up on Monday with the perfect question, or data,  or job description or etc... what would you do the rest of the week or the rest of your life?? If you were perfect where would all the fun be!! and the rest of us imperfect people would miss you.

Be flexible:

Tara in the comments below please give the citation for the book you talked about (flexible and fixed teaching methods).

Its a process.

Explore our learn community blogs for other peoples posts on the conversations.

What do you feel?
