I am an overcome because I never stop fighting and trying to better myself. I’m not a victim I’m a survivor.

I agree that taking an online class can be overwhelming and stress a the same time,because there may be assignments that can be confusing or not turning homework assignments on time before the due date. It’s good to hear that you want become a future educator, and that you want to provide the best education as possible to young children.
Luis — you have a thoughtful, well-developed reply that specifically connects to Eliana’s comment, and build on, expands and extends what she said — assignments being confusing, how online coursework can be overwhelming, due dates, etc.!
Hi Elianna,
I must also work on how to understand this online class. This is new to me and I am worried I won’t be able to keep up. I wish you a great summer class and hope we can both manage.
-Camila
Hey Elianna
I think its pretty cool you love food and traveling. Didn’t mentioned that in my answers I specially love to try foods from different countries, is one of my favorite things to do as well.
I second on your concerns too, I do want to do my best as possible but I’m also new to this site, specailly online classes. its a little concerning to miss due dates or fall behind just because this will be a fast pace course, but like I mentioned in my entry I am certain that Professor Longley will be very helpful and guide us as best as possible. best of luck =)
Eliana, Thanks for introducing yourself! I am happy you are here! You like to travel — where have you been? Cheerleading is a hard sport – it’s considered the most dangerous sport! I hope Open Lab will not be too confusing!

Yasmina — Welcome to ECE 110 in summer 2020! I am thrilled you are here! I understand you are worried about Open Lab. Hopefully in a few weeks it will become easier. Your self-assessment will help determine if you pass this class — you are in the driver’s seat! As far as the workload, during summer courses, we take a 15 week semester and condense it into 6 weeks. If we were meeting face-to face, we would be meeting 4 nights a week from 5:30 PM -9:50 PM. In other works, you should expect to spend 17.5 hours on ECE 110 modules this summer, plus additional time for writing papers and projects!

Hi Denise
I think it’s great that you want to understand children’s behavior. That is one of my goals from this class. I feel if we understand them better and are able to observe and interpret their behavior correctly, we will be able to help and give children the tools they need to be successful in school.also, hopefully by the end of this semester you will finally understand your niece’s behavior and know why she behaves like she’s 88 years old. Best of luck with this semester.
Thanks Teresa, I am excited to understand and know more about children’s behavior because I will be less stressed wondering and assuming their actions instead of objectively coming to a conclusion as well as meeting their individual needs.
Denise & Teresa — responding to each other’s replies is creating community on Open Lab!!! Keep it up!!!!
Teresa — Your reply is connected to Denise’s original comment, yet builds upon, expands on and extends what Denise wrote. You talk about your beliefs regarding understanding children through observation and how observation can give children the tools they need to succeed)!
Denise — Thanks for sharing! Welcome to ECE 110, I am glad you are here! Yes, what happens during our younger stages of development impacts our development as we get age and get older.

-When observation in a classroom, how do I know what’s more important to write down when I have limited time to observe?
5.What are you most looking forward to in ECE 110?

-I want to feel more confident when I write down my observations.
-I want to learn proper terms used by educators to describe children wants and needs.
6.What are you most worried or concerned about for ECE 110?
I am worried to fall behind. Sometimes when I have a lot on my plate like now I get overwhelmed and stressed. I’m still learning how to be a better multitasker and mange my time better.
I am happy to know that we do have a wonderful and very caring professor to guide us. This does alleviate some of my concerns and make me feel more comfortable to ask questions as much as needed.
Teresa — Welcome to ECE 110! I am happy you are taking the class this summer. I am not 100% sure that ECE 110 will meet all of your goals — we are focusing on child development. Observation will be a part of ir, but ECE 311 and ECE 410 will be focusing on those concerns. Thanks for your kind words!

The course does have many assignments/ a lot of work. During summer classes, we take the typical 15 week semester and condense it into 6 weeks.
