Back to school
Classes start tomorrow. The beginning of Year 2. The first two years will be mostly coursework, and then starting next year my class load will be much lighter, so I’ve only got 1 more year of this. It makes me nervous to be starting school again, to be back in the mode of working more than I should. Yet the overall goal makes it all worth it, so I shall continue.
I’m going to take a measurement class, organizational theory with my advisor, theories of literacy, and either a sociology or evaluation class, depending on whether I get into one of the sociology classes or not.
Time to hunker down and focus on developing my focus more closely. As always, my job helps with building research skills and gaining experience in a variety of areas, but the point of graduate school is to build my own research focus/agenda. How will each one of the classes this semester contribute to building that focus?
