The home stretch!

YALL. 

We're almost there!

We are only 3 weeks away from the end of this semester AND, my family is less than a week away from closing on our current house and then beginning the moving journey to Huntsville, TX.  I say journey.. because we don't have an official closing date for our house up there.. It was supposed to be July 23, then was pushed back to July 29, now the seller wants it to be in August. Man, it is a mess! Luckily we have somewhere to stay in the meantime, but it's definitely not the ideal situation. 

Anyway, the next few weeks are going to be a bit chaotic for me, but I am excited to finish out the semester strong.. regardless of my living situation! Please send me all the extra good vibes you have as I will need some supernatural strength/focus/energy to get there.

Education and Policy around Digital Citizenship

After reading through Digital citizenship education handbook: Being online, well-being online, and rights online,  and considering my own experiences, education, recent current events, and recent conversations, I am left wondering where the US is on addressing digital citizenship. Here are the things floating around in my head this evening... I know that there was recently a Supreme Court case passed about free speech about a cheerleader that used some very explicit language on her Snapchat in regards to her school and cheerleading coach after not making the varsity team and was then suspended and kicked off the JV squad. SCOTUS passed in favor of her ability to speak freely on a social media platform about the school without ramifications.  In a Zoom call earlier today for EME5601, we were talking about whether or not kids had classes in school that were related to privacy and internet safety. Right now the consensus seems to be that there are special assemblies or lectures on this t

Final week + life update

We officially closed on our house about a week and a half ago and I've been living down in Galveston at my parent's beach house since then! It would be an awesome vacation, except it's just me, the kids, and our animals most of the time. So while I've tried to make it fun for the kiddos, I'm also just exhausted from solo parenting + school work during the week while my husband is working his new job in our new city! (Kudos to all of you single moms out there!!!)  I am really grateful to be finishing up the semester this week though so next week can be a relaxing and fun beach week! :) I'm sure everyone is ready for a little break. Anyone else have plans for their break between semesters? What classes are y'all planning to take in the fall semester? I am signed up for EME 5608 (Trends and Issues in Instructional Design) and EME 6357 (Evaluation of Training in HPT). It would be lovely to see some familiar names on the discussion boards!
