Thoughts: Class Assignments

The early bird gets the worm...
I have never had a class where you had the opportunity to finish early. Some of my courses have had the option to "work through on your own time", but this schedule is much more flexible. Finishing early is one aspect of the class I am really looking forward to, and so far, I enjoy how the schedule works. Picking the extra credit is also new to me, and I like the assignment "Tech Tips". As I have never made a blog before, I want to explore more behind creating and editing blogs, as well as maybe see some tips on how to change its appearance as the semester goes on.
For the core assignments, I am excited to start reading! Additionally, being able to see what other classmates have written and created will be a good way to get to know them. I especially like that we will be learning about different feedback strategies, as I hope to be able to get better at providing feedback. Not only for this class, but moving forward in other areas as well.

An Introduction to a Bajan Animal Enthusiast

Hi everyone! :) My name is Daana Roach, and I am a Chemical Biosciences (Pre-Vet) major with minors in Psychology and Biological Conservation. With this odd combination, I am (hopefully) going to pursue a programme in Veterinary Conservation Medicine after I graduate.

I grew up in Barbados , an island in the Southeast of the Caribbean, and finished up secondary school in Canada before coming to OU. I may  be biased, but Barbados has some of the most beautiful beaches in the region. It's 166 sq miles big (or small maybe haha), and has a population of about approximately 300, 000.

Week 5 Story: "Sita, Warrior of the Earth"

A warrior of the Earth. Source : Flickr Let me tell you the version of the story they never tell. I was not just the daughter of the Earth, I was her warrior. At the time of my birth, my parents believed I was only a gift from the goddess. Some called her Bhudevi, others called her Bhumi, but while growing up in the kingdom of Videha, she was only known to me as Mother Earth. There were times I thought I felt her presence with me, watching and guiding with a gentle care. When I was very young, I had a keen interest in weaponry and martial arts. I felt as though I was stitched together with fight in my bones, a quick wit and sharp tongue as my aid when physical strength failed me. Although my father forbade me from learning the art of war publicly, he allowed one of his trusted soldiers to train me privately. It was only so lucky that he had seen the incident with Shiva's bow.  My sister and I had been playing nearby when our ball flew under the resting place of the sacre
