Waiting for a green yes.
I have hit submit for the last time at Goddard College. I have completed my student evaluation for my G5, which is quite extensive and VERY important. This will be seen by your future employers so it is a good idea to take some time with it. Of course it was done when I was at a place of feeling brain dead. Now I await for my green YES. Here you see what is in my Student Information System for SIS. We all wait patiently after creating our student evaluation for that Green YES which means we can go on. Somehow this one is anticlimactic.
I'm so sorry for some of my classmates who were G5's and did not make it through this semester. They are not moving on for various reasons; they did not plan their time properly, they did not complete the portfolio to the satisfaction of their advisor. Extensions must be made, it happens. Some just take an extension of a few weeks to polish the portfolio. You must pay for this and... take it after the next semester begins, which means you do not graduate with your class. I thought I would have to take a personal extension-I'll talk more about this in my next post. I don't believe you have to pay for a personal extension but the same criteria applies.
I can't say it enough... PREPARE IN G4 for your G5 semester.
How?
1. Read this blog and follow some of the things I suggest. ( you can search portfolio on this blog for all of the posts on portfolio or thesis)
2. Talk to others
3. Begin to outline your portfolio
4. Ask many questions
5. Do as much as you can.
DON'T THINK YOU WILL HAVE ALL OF THE TIME YOU NEED! I didn't- see my previous post.
