Weekend was so busy, this had to wait until Monday before work

I like to get caught up with reading on Friday, but last week, after work, we headed to Duluth to be with our daughter and take her to her MRI at St Mary's hospital on Saturday morning. We got home in the afternoon on Saturday just in time to prepare for having a couple families over. I know this looks like bad timing, but we have been trying to get together for a couple months and I did not want to postpone yet again. That left Sunday afternoon to read a lot of articles. Here's what I have to figure out. We still have a reading assignments, but no writing required every other week. We are to use the blog reflections to talk about our struggles and questions about learning online. Where do we keep track of all the ideas we pick up in the asynchronous readings? I guess I will just start a word document to keep my notes organized as I read. There is no way I can remember all the finer points of eight readings plus 1-2 of my own for the bi-weekly discussions. I suppose that is one of the things about online learning to learn. Be self-directed. Figure out for yourself how to manage time and resources.
