Persevering....

I'm finding it sooo hard to get a chunk of time long enough to really focus & get my teeth stuck into what I need to do for this course......I easily get a 10 or 15 min slot when the kids are entertained but it's short lived. At night, I've got my own JNI lecturing & posts to do & need time out too with my husband & often I'm just too exhausted to concentrate on the material we're asked to.

The good news is that I am feeling a little more confident with using different tools within the portal like reports & viewing activity levels etc.....so that's a plus.

In honesty, I'm still thinking it's more than 90mins /week......by the time you focus, read all the references, plan your response, execute it etc.....its probably two'ish but maybe I'll still get snappier.

Glad to hear that Sadia & Margaret also felt it was taking them a while longer than anticipated. Was thinking it was just me being slow with the technical stuff & requirements but felt better when they reported they were feeling the same.

Thanks god for Barbie movies.....they're engrossed in one now so I've been able to pay some bills, do this post, & respond to students.....thanx Barbie.....I never would have thought I'd be thinking of you favourably but there you go!!!
