My Learning Goal: Go Back to School
By Jim Lockwood on Jan 3, 2008 in Goals, Jim's Goals, Learn
As I mentioned in a previous post, I will be sharing with you each of my Seven Action goals. First, I will talk about my learning goal.
Goal: To complete a class on web development or programming to help me with my blogging.
It’s been a long time since I attended a class where my performance was graded. The past twenty years have been more about conferences, workshops and those other terms we
give learning in a professional environment. But now it’s back to school.
I’ve registered for Adobe Dreamweaver 8: Web Design at the local community college. My son and I will be attending classes on the same campus (although I doubt he will ever claim to be related). This time around it’s not about the degree or diploma, it’s about knowledge. I need to learn more about the environment I am working in (my moonlighting job). So, I start classes in two weeks and, quite frankly, I can’t wait. I will be keeping you up to date on my experience during the next several months.
If you want to leave me a tip or recommendation for my return to campus, please leave a comment. I’m sure things have changed a bit in the last 20 years.
