Hard to stay on task
A restless night followed by a restless day. Happily, there wasn’t much “going on”, and I made it through to the end of the day. Now to concentrate on an assignment in Mapping that eludes me. I have read the description, and I have no idea how to proceed.
The course is of minor interest, but my pride precludes just letting it slide. I’m at 100% at the half way mark, only the assignment and final exam separate me from perfection. But, the canyon is wide… maybe I could make a virtual map of that. Seriously, if I sit down this evening and master the interface of something called ArcGIS, I can probably put together something for peer review. Why do I do things like this, just when the weather is getting nice?
Recently, I’ve been following the ramblings of an acquaintance about something called “chemtrails”. It might be true, in this person’s case. For the rest of us, a little moment of study in something other than the maze of self-completing sentences and one can see that this is really a non-starter. Why don’t we require people to study science for more than five minutes in the student phase?
Did anyone else notice that we’re into another month? In education circles, this is the month where keeping students on task is extremely difficult. Exams start in just a few days for the secondary level. students Summer starts in just a few weeks, and the attention lags. Do you see a pattern here? Me neither.
