Well, today marked the end of my social life and any semblance of free time. Today, my first online course went live. My first assignments are due tomorrow, but like the smarty pants I am, I decided to get a head start (actually, tomorrow is my birthday, so I plan on doing nothing unpleasant all day long).
I am a huge proponent of working smarter not harder. Some examples of working smarter and not harder would be:
- Not reading all of your emails. You may miss a crucial email from your principal, but that is the risk you take when you receive 3,456,782 emails a day.
- Calling, “spraying down your shower with the detachable shower head every day when showering” cleaning your shower. It’s really genius multi-tasking, methinks.
- Choosing to only correct quizzes, class work, and exit tickets, but not homework, because you are not Super Can Do Everything Teacher, and ain’t nobody got time for that.
- Getting fast food all week, for dinner, because then you don’t need to wash dishes. Blam! Lots o’ time saved.
- Grading papers at red lights. AT LEAST I AM NOT TEXTING.
This is obviously an abridged list, and not complete. There are many ways in which you can save time by doing things the “smarter” way.
Today, I went about my usual “smarter not harder’ routine, and things were going swimmingly. I had skimmed through the course introduction page. I purchased books for the course on Amazon while listening to the tutorial on how to send a message to classmates. I typed up my first assignment in a record 3 minutes. I was on a real roll.
Then, immediately after turning my assignment in to the instructor, I turned in that same assignment on the discussion page, per the directions, and I noticed…
definetely.
Yes, this college graduate-self-professed-spelling-stickler-teacher, spelled ‘definitely’ incorrectly on her very first assignment for her masters in education.
I am killing it, guys.


Hahahaha! Thank you for at least not texting whilst driving. Wait, your first course went live on a Sunday? Bunch of heathens in grad school. I reverse my vote. Open a church and make money by damning the heathens.
I have people who text and drive, quite frankly! They make me really mad when they don’t GO.WHEN.IT.TURNS.GREEN! It went live, but nothing due until Monday. Still heathens though!
I like the smart ideas and the killing it part too 😄😄
Haha! Thank you!!
