At 1 p.m. today I will be submitting my portion of the final project for EDIS 560, my social studies methods class. The final project is not due until May 5, but we want to get it out of the way.
In the end, I threw together two unit tests for our project in about two hours. This was the culmination of weeks and weeks of work on the parts of the three members of my group. I guess it's a good thing we are finished now because it means we won't be struggling to finish at the end like many others in the class are inevitably going to be.
It also helped me notice what else I have to do before I finish the semester...and it's not much. I have one more lesson plan to make, one more journal to submit, a final for Polish, 2 more online surveys to partake in, and final revisions on my seminar paper. That's it.
I've almost made it through everything for the semester, the semester that I figure (besides student teaching which is completely different than actual college) will be my most difficult. There was a casualty along the way in that I had to drop a history class that would have been the last one for my major.
If I had been able to finish that class this semester and take another graduate education class in any of the other semesters I was here I would be essentially finished after next semester-- 3 and a half years to finish a five year program. Unfortunately I was not able to do those other things so I will be here for four years.
Four years to get a masters degree is not too bad though.....I guess I'm just disappointed because if I had tried harder I would be done next fall. But it's the "trying" part where I tended to mess up.
And I'm fine with having to stay here for one more semester....I think..
