Midterms and Beyond

  I can honestly say that I am not proud of my midterm grades at all. I honestly believe that I could have done so much better and I know why they were the way they were for each one. The reason for each one is homework. I either forgot that I had it, or I would try to do it and not fully understand it, and the computer doesn't count partial credit, so for my math class I can't really do anything about it. I was honestly expecting the grades because I knew I was behind on my assignments.
  For this next half of the semester, I will be doing all of my homework and my papers ahead of time and not wait until last minute to complete them (which is why I am completing this assignment now). For my math, I will do the assignments as soon as I get them, even if they aren't due for a few days. This will also help me because if I don't understand it, I will have time to ask my teacher how to do it because if I wait until the night it's due, I won't have time to ask. For english I will check my syllabus everyday even if I am sure that I don't have any that day, or I think I already did it because she sometimes gives us more than one in a day to do. For inquiry, I will do my blog posts all at once when I can so that I don't forget when one is due, because that is my biggest problem. I feel good about anthropology, it is just hard for me to do the homework when I don't understand the reading. For this I may need to read it one day twice, and then the next day read it twice again before I do the assignment just to make sure I cover everything.
