We are getting close to the endgame. I have graded all the staffing assignments and the budget assignments. Overall, they were quite good. In the budget exercise, remember that justification is almost as important as the spreadsheet. Even if you are asking for something as mundane and seemingly necessary as phone service, justify why and show that you have thought about this and maybe even looked at other carriers. Maybe you don't really have a choice on phone providers, it is good to let the powers that be know you take nothing for granted.

I have made comments on your projects and uploaded them back into your dropbox. Hopefully this worked out as well as it appreared to. For the group projects, I uploaded a copy into each of the dropboxes.

There will not be a discussion question now so that you have time to work on your abstracts and papers. I am looking forward to seeing all the projects!!!

= Week Seven The time is just flying by. We have our third (next to the last) face to face on Monday Nov. 2! I am looking forward to the case study presentations. The last groups really set the bar high!!!

I have graded the strategic plans. As to be expected, there was a range of responses. I found them to be well thought out and responsible. I will be sending you each my comments. I was trying to decide the best way to do it and I think that a separate email to each will ensure that you all get feedback.

I have been reading through the discussions from last week and once again and so pleased with the level of discourse. Keep up the great work.

Week five discussions

What an interesting discussion this week. It is very hard to narrow down the list to just five. You did a great job (praising in public!). We even had some back and forth discussions going. I would love to see more of that.

I am looking at your strategic plans and hope to have them all graded this weekend. I don't want to rush through them. I will be away Wednesday and Thursday presenting at the Ohio Educational Media conferece. I am looking forward meeting librarians from Ohio! I will have my computer with me and will try to check it at the airport. > > > I like the way the discussion played out for Week 2 using the wiki rather than the discussion board. I was able to follow the discussions and the responses. There were a lot of great conversation going on. Thank you all for your patience while I was figuring this all out. We will be continuing to use the wiki for our Death of a Salesman discussion during week three. I will post all the discussion topics and the schedule to help you plan your time. Hopefully this will be less stressful.

Week 4 discussions

Wow, you all did a great job this week. I know you probably didn't have a chance to read all the entries but I did. You did a great job of connecting the discussions with the readings and relating to each other. Thank you for a great discussion.

You will notice that I locked down the discussions on Monday. All discussions are due at midnight on Sunday. I will be locking the discussion down on Mondays from now on. Please be sure to have your contribution posted by the deadline. =
