I presented and didn&#8217;t mess up, so it was relieving because I felt a bit like a fish out of water. Or Aquaman&#8217;s weakling brother.<\/p>\n<p>There was the usual stress over student questionnaires, which is unreasonable because I know that much of the feedback is positive or neutral but my brain focuses and cycles through the negative stuff as my own cinema of the damned. I am just about over it now (thanks to slightly out of sync workplaces), and wish I could find a way to just move on from this.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, I had my first overnight trip with students which was quite fun, even if I wouldn&#8217;t choose those activities myself. Directly after that, I had the start of the semester, so I had to remember what I planned at the start of the summer (and what I planned to change).<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, here is some stuff that is working for me:<\/p>\n<p>LMS as document repository so I don&#8217;t spend hours a week photocopying.<\/p>\n<p>Adapted Cornell notes, for myself, and also for my (intermediate and up) listening students, which will likely be written up soon as a blog post.<\/p>\n<p>Bullet Journaling for myself (still) for daily agenda and log and ultrashort lesson plans which is exactly as you imagine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, the Summer was busy and the start of the Autumn was quite busy too.
