Technology for Mythology/Folklore

So far in my college career, I have pretty much exclusively used Canvas, Microsoft products, and some of the Google applications. I would say I am fairly proficient in all of those but have little to no experience with anything else. I am still getting the hang of Blogger and trying to fine tune how I want my blog to work so I am definitely going to have a bit of a learning curve to get used to these new tools. I would definitely like to get better at using graphics and such as that is something I would never learn to do in any of my other classes. I am interested to learn these new sites and skills and am sure they will help me one day down the road!

I have three cats at home but they're a pretty new addition so I don't have any pictures yet (sad I know). I've always wanted a dog but my mom doesn't like them so here we are. I never tell anyone I'm from somewhere since my family has moved almost every three years since I can remember.

Moving around so much gave me a lot of appreciation for new places and new people. I enjoy traveling and am not afraid to go somewhere new. After graduation, I will be moving to Memphis, TN to start my new job! (Photo...

Feedback Strategies

For this weeks information on feedback strategies I read Why Do So Many Managers Avoid Giving Praise and How to Give Feedback Without Sounding Like a Jer k. What I most like about these readings was the focus on the fact that negative feedback is not bad. In the managers giving praise article, it was interesting that so many of the workers did not relate whether or not the manager was giving honest feedback on the negative. They were mostly influenced by whether there was also positive praise. Positive feedback, even when it's smaller, is important because it allows the workers to see that their efforts are noticed and appreciated. The key to that is, as discussed in the second article, being sincere. The compliment sandwich is seen as false and people can tell they're being buttered up. Conversely, workers are willing to accept both positive and negative feedback when it is given in an honest way. I also thought it was interesting and a good idea in the second article how the...
