Likert Scale demo

Wow, what a semester!  Work was crazy.  Decisions made at state level trickled down to make the SLP's and other related service people's lives miserable.  The preschool program I work in is filled to the brim and all of my co-workers were running around like chickens with their heads cut off.  Add to that a room change...and well. It was challenging.

School was amazing.  Getting a Ph.D. is a very different process than getting your undergraduate or your Master's.  Instead of your program being prescribed to you, you have a lot of say in what classes you take. I took three classes this semester, a class on learning theory, a intro to quantitative research, and a course on evaluation of young children. About a quarter of the way through, I knew I had taken on more than I could chew, but I couldn't decide which class to give up. So I powered my way through. Next semester, I will be more cautious and only take two classes.  I am going to take a class on the rights of people with disabilities and a class on applied behavior analysis. Is it weird that I am excited? 

This was the first weekend in a long time that I didn't have school work, and I didn't know what to do with myself.  So I decided to finally upload my Likert Calculator to teachers pay teachers. 

If you don't know about Likert scales, you should. 
For a quick primer check out my youtube video on how to use Likert scales and my TPT products.

Microsoft Outlook and the SLP

There have been lot's of changes in my life in the last few years. I am still working with and passionate about preschoolers, and as a result I am now enrolled in a Ph.D. program.  You might notice, I also have a new name. I still have the same job.  But this blog has been quiet for too long, and it's time for me dust it off and share my knowledge.

So for my grand re-opening I give you three youtube videos on how to use Microsoft outlook to make your life easier:
