Getting Started


This is the first post that I am making to my writing journal for EDUC815. I am sure that journaling will help me to organize my thoughts, become more conscience of the importance of the writing process, and help me to stay focused and on schedule with the necessary steps needed to complete the dissertation processes.

However --
I seem to be getting a slow start with this online journaling process. I had some difficulty setting up my account – passwords and email issues. It turns out that I had a long forgotten gmail account that I couldn’t remember the password to. After trying to set up new accounts with my Drexel, work and home email accounts, I finally figured out the “old” gmail password and was able to set up a new blog. I have always felt comfortable using technology, but this was not a fun experience!  This led to a conversation with work friends on how many id/passwords we have for all of the digital resources we use – it is mindboggling and almost impossible to remember them all. Ah, technology!

    Thank you for the encouraging words.

    It was actually fun once I got started, but remembering all the passwords is really hard to do.
