My JourneyWrite a blog related to your journey or your topic. Something that’s on your mind that’s been triggered through this journey.
In looking back on my journey to my master’s degree, I realize it’s been filled with so many mixed feelings - everything from frustration to hard-earned pride. My moments of frustration occurred early on when trying to write an IRB that would be successfully approved and then with trying to comprehend the challenging Dervin reading and now with the steep learning curve of producing an animated video for the capstone project. Although I experienced frustration, it was soon to be replaced with relief that I had been successful in my attempts and eventually, upon reflection, that type of pride that only comes from persistence. I am so thankful for this experience of being challenged to move outside my comfort zone as both a student and as an educator. This journey has made me aware that I am a more innovative educator in part because of being a student again and I couldn’t be more thankful for that.

I couldn't have said it any better! I completely identify with your journey, the frustration and the self pride. Even in the little things making a discovery or figuring out how something works is almost magical. We should definitely be proud of our innovative learning!!
