I’m going to try to start writing daily updates again; it’s been too long since I’ve written. That said, it’s pretty late, so this one may be brief. I just finished up my last assignment for my online course on Data Analytics and the Humanities. It was pretty interesting, but none of the assignments or feedback were so substantial that I couldn’t have learned the same thing by just watching the videos on my own rather than as part of the class. Still, it’s something to put on a resume. Learning doesn’t count unless you get a special piece of paper at the end.
My students received their first grades last week (they were supposed to go out a month ago, but there were some technical difficulties), and suddenly, the three-to-four kids who had stopped showing up to my classes returned all at once. Crazy coincidence, that.
In other news, it’s been at least two months since we’ve had any rain. The temperature dropped for a bit, but the heat is back this week. Part of me feels thankful for this, but at the same, there’s something perverse about watching people put up Christmas decorations when it’s 90 degrees outside. The spirit is in the right place, but it still feels wrong to me.
