By nature I like taking a problem, breaking it into pieces, investigating the various associated issues, finding possible solutions, and then putting everything together again. My experiences and training over the past year as a curriculum coach taught me the value in analyzing the data before making decisions. Imagine my surprise when I found myself balking at doing this course. All of a sudden I was nervous, unsure about my ability to do any of this, and fearful of what could possibly be stirred up. The past 5 weeks have picked me up, steadied my feet on the path, and given me a relatively clear view of the journey ahead. I am glad this wasn’t the first course, but sure appreciate it being at the beginning of my degree plan. Each of the assignments and activities stretched me without breaking me.
The blog has been the most frustrating part of the past 5 weeks – BUT! I now have Blogging for Dummies. There is hope on the horizon. Attitude is everything and I choose to see challenges as a means of growth and understanding. Little did I know, when I wrote this on the profile of my blog, how much insight (aka…growth and understanding) I would gain from this course. I look forward to the inquiry journey and experiences – and will make sure I have plenty of chocolate on hand for everyone on the ride with me.
