July 17, 2016

This morning I woke up early and spent the entire morning working on practicum stuff. Minus the time it took me to feed the dogs and put out bird feeders. I made decent progress on the Twine story I'm making based on the scavenger hunt. I also now have a better idea of how I'm going to construct it. I start by giving them four directions to start in. My idea to fully complete one direction and then go back and copy the same order of events for the other directions but start it from where that direction starts. Which I think sounds confusing as I type it out. Let's do an example. One direction will have them start on the first floor and then they will work their way through the library. I am kind of picturing this as a big circuit, where they will end up back at the library entrance. So the second direction will start at a different part of the circuit but they will still be completing the same circuit. I don't know, it makes sense in my head. I think there is potential. And it is giving me something to do while I wait for the assessment project to progress.

The rest of my day was spent working on stuff for my capstone. I finally managed to go through all of my classes and copy assignments into the folders I made for the program outcomes. I've got at least one assignment in each folder and most have multiple assignments, which will give me some options. By Tuesday I need to have the final eight picked out and have summaries of each written. I was going to start that tonight but I also need to figure out the four assignments I am going to use for the professional values. That is twelve assignments/artifacts all together and each one has to be from a different class. That is the tricky part. It would be hard enough picking the assignments but it makes it way harder knowing that I have to have an assignment from twelve different classes. There are some classes where it is a stretch. And the professional values are a little vague when it comes to matching them up with assignments. But I'll get it figured out. Because I have to.

My productivity really fell off after dinner. I continued to work on capstone stuff but it was really half-hearted and I was easily distracted. Story of my life.


The plan for tomorrow is to wake up early so I can get in a few practicum hours before I go to work. Then at work I need to finish my last homebound list and hopefully start pulling books. That doesn't really leave any time for capstone stuff but maybe after work. Although not likely because there isn't a lot of motivation after nine o'clock at night. We'll see.
