Reflections on Unit 8

Well this week turned out a lot better than I thought it would last week. We were all struggling a bit most of the week under heavy workloads and illness, but there was always at least one person carrying the torch all the time (not always the same person!) so we did manage to put together a good paper. As always, the APA formatting caused more discussions than anything else. What a pain. But in any case our paper will be ready in time to turn in tonight. Whew! We still have to do reviews of the papers and do corrections based on peer and professor reviews, but that shouldn't be as hard as the initial paper.

My next goal is to finish my paper for my 6783 class. Finish is a misnomer - I need to start my paper for 6783. In some ways it will be harder to do this next paper (also a 10 page paper) because it's an individual project and I won't have all the assistance that I did on the paper we just finished, but in other ways it will be easier. No one to negotiate with about APA interpretation! No one to argue with over content! In some ways it will be a relief. Still, this group was very fun to work with and I'll miss them. It's always nice to work with positive people. Yay Quadees!
