Feeling Overwhelmed
I have spent most of the past three days working on assignments for my class. To say that I am feeling a bit overwhelmed is an understatement. Today I spent most of the morning looking for pictures to use for my movie and still have to put the movie together. I then spent all afternoon typing in the information for a WebQuest into the program to post the WebQuest. I thought I was never going to get into a website that would allow me to put it together and post it on the web. I hope I have done everything correctly and it works the way it is suppose to. I can see the value in learning how to do these things but they are very time consuming and mentally exhausting. The challenge now is finding the time to incorperate these types of activities into my classes when I teach.

Yikes...I started going through the blogs and you won't believe how many say they're overwhelmed. I think my anxiety is growing with each one I read!
Ditto...but I like to hear that the rest of you are stressed...then I don't feel so alone! (Not that I wish stress on you all)> :-(
It helps to know that we're all in the same boat--Your web page will be great!!!
I know the feeling! Hopefully things will start to come together, and it will get easier with time. I am still working on my webquest, and haven't starting making my movie yet. I am going work on them tomorrow. Good luck with everything.
I know the feeling of being overwhelmed. I was stressing & worrying over trying to get things finished, but a few weeks ago the Preacher's sermon was on how God is there to take on our worries, what seems BIG to us is all small things to Him. That was just what I needed to hear at the time. I still get to feeling overwhelmed but I know I wiil get it done.
Alicia's right everyone is writing how overwhelmed they are. But, It will so good when we're done!
I was overwhelmed! But now...Oh, who am I trying to kid? I'm still overwhelmed and behind. As Anna said, it will be so GREAT when we finish! And I keep trying to tell myself to 'just keep swimming!"
Don't get too overwhelmed. Most of these programs are user friendly, and after you understand how to navigate around technology, it goes faster. I would be interested to know what you teach.
Mentally exhausting is right. I'm so tired, then I toss and turn all night owrrying about it.
It is wonderful to have all of these additional tools to use in our classrooms....even though it has been rushed...lol
