About me
I am from Texas and currently a 4th year student at the Royal Veterinary College. I live here with my husband, Lloyd, and our Welsh Corgi, Adieu. I was previously a high school teacher for five years. Subjects taught included the following: biology, pre-AP biology, chemistry, and aquatic science.
My hobbies include walking thorugh the fields with my dog, motorcycling, and playin' Texas hold 'em poker!
What I hope to get out of this project
I hope to appreciate the efforts necessary for a collaborative project to be successful. It will be nice to experience being the 'who' behind the 'what' as opposed to the faceless information I encounter everyday on the internet.
My best learning experience
Learning how to play Tetris!
and why it was good
I was in awe of the skill and speed my husband displayed, and when I attempted to play, I was frustrated at ending the game at only 7 or 8 lines! Repeated exposure guarantees learning, and after many sleepless nights and zombified hours, I beat my husband with 184 lines!
Pathology that interests me
I really enjoy the gross anatomy of pathology with an empahasis on forensic science.
Pathology that is difficult
Histology!

Day one thoughts
What (three things) I learnt today
1. I learned how to approcah the project and what are I am assigned to to focus my efforts.
2. I learned about the cognitive learning styles and how we change our styles to adapt to various situations.
3. I learned that we could start our own motorcyle gang!
What I still need to learn
1. I need to learn how to organize the information into manageable bits.
2. I need to learn how to concept map - as I never have used this tool for personal revision.
3. I need to learn how to change the color of fonts (is it even possible?)
How I feel about what has happened today
At first I felt quite daunted, but now I feel optimistic. I believe this will be worthwhile of not only my time but for those in the future who will use it. I look forward to creating something that will aid in my learning as well.
