School stuff
Feb. 1st, 2005 03:51 pmPrepping for tutorials today. Last week one of the students requested that we spend time going through sample multiple choice questions, so I think I might divide them into groups and have them make up some multiple choice questions today. I have a few of my own as well, but going through those gets boring pretty fast.
Tomorrow is my first interview for the big project, with another on Friday. I scheduled the Friday one for an hour after class ends; I hope I have enough time to get there. Tonight I need to personalize the interview a little--make sure the questions are all relevant to the participant based on his survey info--and practice the name generator, because it was changed and the new sampling procedure looks fairly complicated. I also need to read for my knowledge media design class. I'm still seriously contemplating dropping the course--actually, I'm not even sure I'm officially in it at the moment--especially if all of my friends drop out, as they've been discussed doing. The only problem is that then I'd have to pick up another course over the summer, and I would dearly like to be done coursework after this term. Plus, the course doesn't require a final paper--just a conference presentation. I wonder if she'd let me do a variation on the paper I'm going to present at the CSAA conference? I suppose that might be a little sketchy, but it would be nice to have a chance to do a public run-through before I present it for real.
