Well here we are. Some of you are already done with your coursework for this class and others are still working on your portfolios and what not. I'm very happy to say that I finished up my portfolio a few days ago and furthermore, I also submitted my final paper for LIS 2000 this morning, too. Thus, I'm done with the semester. I'm a little bit worried that I still haven't received my grade for Assignments 7 and 8 (and for that matter, the group presentation we did on-campus for LIS 2000), so I don't feel like it's quite over. Even when I'm done with my work, there's still more to do (like write this blog). I don't mind too much, though. I guess that's the nature of being in grad school. Once this semester ends, we can sit back and relax for a month, but I know that in September it'll all start back up again. Frankly, I'm worried about how I'm gonna balance everything, especially with the the Retrieval half of LIS 2005 (which is now LIS 2002, I think) being called "search and seize hell" by at least one other blogger on here. Then again, I think all of us should be proud of ourselves. We all have busy lives and lots of responsibilities and this isn't easy.
As for the final assignment, well there's not too much to say about it (for a change). That's because it's just a portfolio of all the work we've already done. I'll say that the hardest part about it was figuring out how to present the ePrints articles and doing the screen capture, saving and then embedding the code and what not. Overall, though, I'm glad that it didn't take an inordinate amount of time, though. I know my site probably doesn't look that great (thanks to those who disagree), but I'm no programmer/web designer (to say the least). I guess the functionality is the most important part.
Well, unless I feel like posting something else on here this coming week, I'll see you all in the fall! I hope you enjoyed reading this thing as much as I enjoyed making it.
