(This is a picture of me and my Dad in San Antonio, TX last summer: I have so much respect for my dad. He was only able to complete the minimum of his formal education; about 3rd grade~but is the most intelligent, knowledgeable and logical person I know!)
A Reflection on 10 Months of Learning...
I can hardly believe that we are in Month 11 of this program! I remember last summer when I was notified that I had been accepted into Full Sail's EMDT program. I was in San Antonio with my father and my two children. We were visiting the River Walk. I had no idea what the program was going to be like since I had never participated in an online course and it had been years since I was in school. I must say that it has definitely been a good, educational, but yet long journey. I am so thankful for all I have learned and I only hope that I continue to be successful up to the completion of this program. My family and I are planning a great trip to Florida so see me graduate. I will be the first in my family to receive a Master's Degree. I was also the first in my family to obtain a Bachelor's degree as well. I have to admit that I can't wait until I can experience the feeling of not having to rush home to finish projects and assignments; and I can fully implement all I have learned into my teaching career. My family is so proud of me and I want them to know how much I have sacrificed during this program. It has all been worth it! I have worked extremely hard to maintain an "A" in every course. I have kept up with my grades since the beginning and although I was doubtful about Month 10, I am so relieved to have made it to Month 11. I only hope that I continue and that I finish with a great presentation that I can share with others and also one that I can continue to build upon. I keep thinking about the book we are reading for the course and the principle of "Giving an A". I truly feel that I have earned each and every "A" and I would recommend this book in the beginning of the program. I also think about what my letter would look like if I were one of Zander's students. This is a good activity to help reflect on 10 Months of hard work, sacrifice, and dedication! *=)
