Entry 408 for Wednesday May 26, 2021
The core questions:
Credit goes to Ben and readers of his blog for these “Four Questions” and the five stretch questions.
- What did you do today? Meeting with Eduardo, Carolina, and José Manuel about t̶h̶e̶i̶r̶ our Novus project; #educoffee with Eduardo, Miguel, Jorge P., and Cam; off to the campus to pick up the book for Ana D.; time to catch up on course planning; meeting with #MA2002B student Mariana; #MA2002B national office hours with Roberto, Luis, and myself.
- What did you enjoy? The meeting about the Novus project started with me thinking they just wanted my advice/thoughts about the project. They switched to inviting me about 40 minutes in and had me hooked.
- What did you find difficult? I really need to be saying “no” to more work and this Novus project will be forcing me to say “no” to other projects. That is okay though, I need to take some time out of helping every group that asks me to give a talk or workshop about teaching online this year after burning myself out with that last summer.
- What has changed? It has been about 4 years since my last Novus project which was MolCaGeTe with Alex Parra. This one came unannounced but really intrigues me.
