Since I started taking SPED 501 course, I was so panic and frustrated. I was defeated!!! However, with the help form a friend, I completed my drafts and I intentionally emailed Professor Scanlon to express my difficulties and asked for a sample, but he did not provide. Well, I still achieved my purpose. I just wanted him to realized that I work hard and I care. With insufficient scaffolding, I encountered questions and problem. I need extra help. That’s it!

Well, he said that he took a quick scan and the paper looks good. Ridiculously, he could not take a more careful look, because he was not clear about my intention…. What a sarcastic answer! Teachers jobs are to help students, but not make student fell panic and confused. I just felt that he cares the grading more than what I took away from this course.

That’s what happened during this week.
