New Year, New Classes, New Project!

So I have been meaning to do this for a while, but I just have not had the time. I am enrolled in a whopping 18 units this semester and we'll see if I am alive at the end of the semester! Actually, all the classes that I am taking are really interesting and I don't want to drop any of them! In addition to the 2 required classes (i203-Social and Organizational Issues of Information, and i205- Information Law and Policy), I am also taking i213-User Interface Design, i247- Information Visualization and Presentation, i290-20- Interface Aesthetics, i290-2- Technologies for Creative Thinking and Learning. I am also working hard on a project that my partner (and fellow iSchooler Pierre Tchetgen) launched called WordSoundLife.org. It is a social networking system for students, teachers and mentors. We are attempting to develop a totally organic learning system from the ground up. As you can imagine, I do have my hands full this semester. However, I always have a few spare moments to help Meg and Shirley out by showing any new students or prospectives around South Hall and our programs. If you see me in the hallways of our beloved South Hall, fell free to say Hi!
