We had a visitor in our CIS-105 Simple Programming Design class today. Ms. Teasley from the NGTC Library gave a very informative and interesting presentation on the library resources that are available to us, how to access those resources, when stuff is due, and how much they LOVE to help us when/if we need help. It was brief but very educational. Thank you, Ms. Teasley, for coming to our class and talking to us and for being sensitive to the study subject of our class and specifically mentioning resources that might be beneficial to us.
We are learning more about PTO charts and will soon have class work and homework to reinforce our knowledge and understanding. I think I used this "process" when I was back in grade school when solving word problems - thanks to my mathematical father Frank Blair!! [What was the desired result? What info did I already have? (What part of the info was unnecessary and should not be included in the input process?) And, what process did I need to use to get the desired result?] I never really had any problem with word problems. Now I am thankful that I already grasp this PTO chart. I had NO idea that I would ever need this - but then, don't we approach problems in life this same way: what is the desired result - of said problem, what are the facts, what is actually not revelent to the problem that I think might be, and, what do I need to do to get the desired result? Sure helps me work through my problems - that and prayer!
And I shared Brownies in class today - which were well recieved!
It was a good class!
