MW: Course Pattern and Flow

The ESL Block is set up with a pattern and a sense of flow to help you manage the many life responsibilities you have. 

For the Spring semester, we will be covering one module each week. There is generally one chapter reading for each module, along with other readings, videos, and activities. In addition to the module work. 

The week will begin on Monday each week. All assignments for the first module of the week will close at 11:59 PM on Friday of that week for both 3332 & 4360.  Your  week will look like this:

Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday	Saturday
Module assignments		Weekly Zoom class for  *section .252 at 9am *section .254 at 12:30 pm		All assignments are due by 11:59 pm

For the record: I am asking you to submit assignments on Friday.  

HOW TO MANAGE IT ALL

Fitting six credits requires significant self discipline, especially in an online course. This table shows one way to organize your workload. You may have a better way to organize it that accommodates your other responsibilities better. How your structure your week is not a major concern of mine; ensuring that you DO have a plan in place is most important. 

Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday	Saturday
Read through all of Module for both classes		Attend and participate in Weekly Zoom Class		Complete and submit all assignments for both classes as indicated in each   module by 11:59 pm.

Whatever routine you design, be sure to include time for relationships, movement, and rest. Enjoy some sunshine each day, to your preferred level of tolerance. You are carrying a heavy load, yet you are strong enough to sustain it.

Make sure that you don't let your coursework be included in the "sand" - it is a terrible feeling! Never heard the analogy about filling your jar with the big rocks before the gravel and sand in your life?  Read the story by clicking here! Links to an external site.
