Knowing when to lean on others and work through projects (photo credits Bent)

This is blog post 9,and it is due on Monday March 27th with two responses due by Wednesday March 29th. Try to respond to two people you have not responded to before.

At this writing, this class has four more weeks of seat time....that really is not that many days.  For those of you who have routinely not worked in or out of class, get going....graduation is almost here. For the rest of you (the larger majority of the class) "stay the course" and move forward.

This week I want you to reflect and blog on the following:

1. How do you keep yourself motivated when you can almost see the end, but you still have quite a few things to complete before you arrive at the end?

2. Where are you in this class, behind, on track, ahead?  Consider where you are, and then blog about your performance as a student, be honest about it.

3. Why am I asking you to make this community connection?  Obviously I think it is important, but why?

4. How does the act of reflecting promote learning?

Remember, ticktock...the clock is winding down on your high school career.  Go out with your head held high, and a feeling of complete accomplishment.  You are almost ready to spread your wings.
