A Note of Thanks and Support

Over the past 8 weeks, we have gotten to know each other better and have helped each other with insights and direction in writing our research papers.  I want to thank everyone for their input and insights to my topic of social-emotional development.  I went through many stages of learning and discovery while writing the research paper.  First, I could not believe that we had to write a 12-15 page paper, I was afraid that I could not write that many pages.  Second, the task of finding nine sources scared me but I found them fairly easily and had problems narrowing them down.  Third, the actual process of writing the paper and the time that it consumed.  Now, we are at the end of our journey for this class and I have learned so much about writing and a lot about each of you in the class that I do have the overwhelming feeling any longer but it has been replaced with one of success and the making of new friends. 

I would also like to thank Professor Susie, she has been such a help and has responded so quickly to any questions as well as grading assignments promptly.  I was in one class where the professor did not have anything graded until the last module, it was very difficult trying to figure out what she expected from the students but Professor Susie made it very easy to overcome any mistakes before the next module.  Thank you Professor Susie for your professionalism. 

I wish everyone in the class success in implementing their advocacy plan and also on their paper for this class.  Good luck and thanks to everyone!
