Wow, I received an A- in my MicroEconomics class!! She must have curved the grade as my calculations came up with a B and pushing it a B+. Hey, I’ll take an A- any day. I can honestly say that I worked hard to get that grade, so yes I deserve it. I am now taking the MacroEconomics class online with a different instructor. I have many of the same classmates, and the discussion is everybody struggled to get through that last class. This instructor seems to be taking a different approach and is concentrating on the concepts rather than the formulas and graphs. That is a relief. He also is not using test bank questions, instead he is only giving a mid-term and a final exam. He is also giving weekly articles to read and discuss online as part of the grade. Maybe I won’t struggle as much with this class!
I am also continuing with my C++ class. Even though I messed up my mid-term in that class, I should still come out with a B+ or an A-. At least I enjoy doing that work. The first C++ class I took was easy as I was very familiar with all the concepts. This second course is a bit harder as I have never learned object oriented before. I have always wanted to learn it, so that is why I am taking it as an elective (my one an only elective!)
I also am taking a Communications and Networking class this session. That class seems to be easy so far, but interesting. Much of the material I am familiar with since I have been into computers for so many years. (22 years I have been dealing with computers) Thankfully the course is suppose to meet twice a week, but the instructor has turned it into a hybrid course. That means we will only meet once a week and do other work online. I enjoy hybrid classes as it gives the face to face experience, but gives more freedom as well.
