Week 8 Progress

Week 8 Progress

I feel like my progress has been slow coming. Like I spoke of in my last post, I feel like I genuinely have a passion for writing but struggle with technology. I am a grandma when it comes to anything with computers besides communication. I could definitely use some help navigating webpages and creating websites/webpages and organizing them in such a way that meets the criteria for the class. If anyone has any tips that would be incredible! 

Other than that, I feel like it has been incredibly rewarding getting to learn about Indian Epics and the culture of India. I took this class because I feel called to go to India next year when our pastor leaves to go plant a church in his home village. I am excited to take what I learn when I go to India!

I am hopeful about more progress that will be made! 

Week 8 Comments and Feedback

Comments have been super helpful for me. I have technically only had comments on my one story but I like how every one is very unique and intricate in their giving of feedback. Feedback can be difficult to give at times but I feel like everyone does a really excellent job at giving positive feedback, as well as constructive gracious feedback.

Looking Back

I honestly love writing, but this class has really challenged me because I'm not used to making up stories. I also realized I am pretty horrible at organizing blogs and reading information on a blog, but I will say I becoming less horrible, which is full of hope and excitement that I can (after 6 weeks) finally comprehend the assignment. I am thankful for a professor who is patient and allows grace when I mess up on the assignments and stories. It's been cool to be allowed to do things wrong but learn immediately and over time.

Looking Forward

I'm stoked about getting to become more creative and reading more stories! I look forward to hearing more techniques and learning more from my peers and from Laura!
