8th September

Well then, it's time for me to switch off my overheated laptop! I feel as though I've fulfilled my POA for today, having:

- familiarised myself with Google Docs
- set up my Delicious account -I'm simply under 'laurabentley' should you want to add me
- enrolled for this semester
- visited various course related websites (there's a lot of information out there!)
- completed an application form for the university's Web Helpdesk (visit http://webhelpdesk.mdx.ac.uk )
- organised my laptop (favourites bar/documents folder) to make way for plenty of new work!

Small steps I know, but they've certainly helped me get the study bug back!

Here starts my blogging of the third and final module...

With a day off from work, and an aborted journey from Southampton to today's meeting with Peter, I have finally sat down to kick start this module into action.
Today's POA is to familiarise myself with all of the 'tools' stated in our handbook.. to get myself set up and ready to work.

I will have a busy work schedule throughout this entire module, so will need a lot of motivation to keep on top of both my job and academic studies. The plan is to broadcast my POA every time I sit down to study, hopefully ensuring that I complete a substantial amount of work to report back on. (Although I won't be offended if you want to scroll past my posts on Google Reader.. I don't want to bore you all with my lesson plans!)
