Class Assignments

I am enjoying how the class is looking thus far. The work load seems reasonable to me, nothing to crazy as long as we ensure to keep up with it and don't let it overtake us. The course feels like it has a lot of autonomy, freedom to choose the way in which you do things. I really like that, because autonomy is one of the key factors of intinsicly motivating people. I am also loving the extra credit and how many options there are to choose from. I can do whichever one I am in the mood for, or I may find a favorite and just stick with that one. Regardless, it makes the workload seem easier and provides a little extra motivation to get the work for this class done. The only thing that I do not quite understand is the final project. I have no clue how or where to begin, but I'm hoping that will all be cleared up in the weeks to come.

I am very much extroverted and am happiest when I'm around others. I decided that engineering would not be a good fit due to this, for I would be forced to work a lot by myself and wouldn't get the human interaction that I need. I took a psych class in high school an

   A Guiding Spirit Link This story can now be view in my portfolio here . There was once a native American man who was tasked to go out and find food for his tribe. The tribe had recently fallen upon hard times and supplies were running scarce. Atop that, the man belongs to a small tribe and was one of few that able enough to venture out and find food for his fellow tribesmen. He made his preparations before setting out. He gathered tools to help ensure his survival. He readied his weapons for the prey that he was hoping to happen upon. Lastly, before he set out, he began to gather some basic rations for the journey ahead, but soon made the decision that he best leave it all for the tribe.   He set out in the forest, and it was not long until he was overtaken by hunger. The man scavenged as best he could, yet he was spending much greater amounts of energy then he was gaining. Nearing the end of the third day, the man hadn’t seen so much as the tracks of an animal. He was
