About me

Activity

I find that getting rid of stress is a very easy thing if you take the time to do it. When not working I do not think about work or go back to work. I give myself time to do things that I enjoy doing to bring the stress and frustration level down. This works very well.
Stress is a good and bad thing in my book. Being in media we encounter stress everyday. I think my largest stress creator is myself and my strive for perfection. This at times can leak into my classes, but at times is good because the media world demands perfection.

Being a media professor grading is something that is very different in our world. Essentially every project we give students is very objective and not based of facts. We have to be very open when grading projects as many of these projects relate to students and their experiences.

I must admit that I am not the best when it comes to managing time. But I have found that setting a adjustable schedule and task list always helps with courses, life, and everyday task.
I have found that dealing with older students often becomes a problem due to knowledge lack of current technology, being away from an educational environment, and current class pace. Often I will peer younger students with older students to insure that the knowledge give will be reinforced from another person's perspective so older students will understand better.
