So I'm taking an online course this quarter (Educational Psychology). Its a recommended course for my school psychology graduate school track.
This class will be the death of me! Each week (10 weeks) has an assignment we have to download and complete and resubmit in word. As the "assigment" actually has like 3 or 4 assignments (some are research papers!). Please for each book chapter (16 chapters) we have to do a multiple choice quiz, a short answer quiz, an essay quiz, and 4 portfolio questions. This class will be the death of me! I've been pulling all nighters for a week straight (going onto week 2!) to get this stuff done! I'm also taking a 400 level sociology class (which requires like 4 reading assignments per class which meets twice a week), another psychology class that has an assignment based on the reading due twice a week plus and intro to teacher ed which requires 6 assignments per week! Plus I do a psychology study working with ADHD middle schools at a school that's an hour away so I'm in a car for 4 hours a week and doing the study 5 hours a week! And trying to get all this work done has gotten me suspended at work because of tardiness.
Sorry... I just needed to rant. I'm also sorry if this doesn't make any sense... It's midnight and I'm exhausted.
Re: Head... Meet Desk... (rant)
Also, I understand your frustration. I'm taking some pretty time-consuming classes this semester as well. It's as if professors don't understand that we have other commitments and classes. haha. It's unfortunate...but it's something that we have to do. It's exhausting but it will be so worth it in the end. Keep your eyes on the prize! Goodluck!
