Hello fellow COMM 101-ers!
I must say, I'm a little intimidated because although I'm fairly computer literate, I've never caught on to the whole BLOG frenzy... it seems really interesting though so I'm really looking forward to this semester.
A little bit about me: I'm a COMM major/Business minor, technically in Junior standing, coming from De Anza and before that SDSU. I took a little detour from SDSU as I started working full time for MAC cosmetics as an assistant manager, but now full-time at a Venture Capital firm (complete change, I know, but now I have my weekends back so I can't complain there) I still do makeup as a "side" job, so I manage to keep pretty busy. But I am determined to finish at SJSU via night and online classes. This is my first semester attempting 3 classes instead of my usual 2. So wish me luck!!
Looking forward to interacting with all of you!!

Hey I know how you feel. I also work full time and am taking 2 classes (impressive that you are taking 3!)...I've learned that keeping organized by writing everything down in my day planner really helps me stay on top of things and not forget anything! :)
I am a little intimidated about blogging as well. I never caught on to the blogging thing either. So if we run into trouble lets help each other out. Molly Mcmuffing made the comment that keeping everything in a planner is really helpful and I have to agree. I am also taking 3 classes and working full time. The planner helps you stay organized.
I have to admit blogging scared me a bit as well, especially since I decided to require blogging in my winter class before I had every blogged. But I'd talked with a number of online instructors who said using blogs (and not blackboard) really energized their classes. So I took the plunge. And it worked out well in that session as well as in the summer. So far, all my students have been able to figure it out, and they seem to enjoy the conversations that develop. As for time management, I use google calendar. That's how I know where I need to be, when I need to be there, and what I need to do each day.
