Even though this school week was only four days, it has been hard to get back into the swing of things. I feel that the class meeting on Wednesday was a good way to begin the course. I must admit that I was a bit overwhelmed when I looked over the assignments for week 2. I had never heard of a MOO before and when I printed the MOO documents I thought they looked Greek. After the class meeting it all meant a little more since to me. I guess trying something new is always difficult at first. This brings me to share a quote I read this week.

"Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward." -Vernon Law

I am the type person who wants to know how to do things step by step and it doesn't always work that way. One example of this is when I was working on assignment 1.1.9. There was no right or wrong prompt to write in regards to the three articles we read. However, I struggled and struggled with what type of prompt to use. I read each of the articles at least twice and finally came to a prompt. The more I read the more I understood about information literacy. Now, I feel that I know the importance of information literacy and why it is important to be a lifelong learner, thus, information literate.

I am going to close for now. I am at WVU on a Saturday night and I am doing homework, now that takes discipline! :)
