I haven't been this anxious about an assignment in a long time. The majority of us have been frantically gathering data, conducting interviews and editing these stories for over a week now. Yesterday's editing session confirmed my lack of journalistic writing style. I have a lot to learn and little time to learn it. At least I have all the resources I could ever want to help me teach my newspaper class.

Malika,
ReplyDeleteYou are not alone with the anxious feeling! For me, it was a way to remember how my students feel with a pressing deadline. And at least now we know our own personal areas of weaknesses, and strengths:)

Just remember editors... Don't bleed too much on our stories.

I am not going to forget this anixious feeling.
ReplyDeleteAs a teacher, I want to make I keep giving feedback to my students when they are under pressure. I really appreciate that type of assistance when I was under a deadline.
I want to make sure I give that to my students too.
