I emailed my final set of essays for the 2nd class tonight. What a relief to be done with that. I took a class on "how to teach so students remember" and another on the latest brain research and how it affects education. It was pretty interesting reading, but the writing was a chore. I think between the 2 classes I had about 45 pages of text. Yuck. But at least I didn't have to sit in a classroom. These were correspondence courses, so I could read on the comfy couch.
My hours at the computer sent me to the chiropractor twice this week though. My neck and back are still killing me. I need to figure out better ergonomics that's for sure!
Tomorrow music camp begins. I am teaching all the bassoon sections, 1 or 2 theory sections, a class on finale notation software and the cartoon music class I developed last year. Although teaching at camp is a lot of fun, it is really exhausting.
Ciao
