There are certain things I do to relieve stress: - go for a walk - it is amazing how refreshed I feel after the walk. -take a siesta - a short afternoon nap is a great way to energize yourself. - exercise - the most enjoyable exercise classes are Zumba and Bollywood dance exercise. I highly recommend these !!

For me balancing work and family is the biggest source of stress. Also working from home is great in many ways but also stressful as I always feel like I am working but also attending to something or the other ( phone call, kids' homework, housework etc ) I am constantly trying to stay calm and multitask and often getting stressed in the process. Do any of you feel this way as well ?

I feel that as mentioned in the course materials, true/false and multiple type questions are easier to grade and also more objective. Essay questions and papers are more time consuming to grade. However I think these assessment methods are also important as they help build students' writing skills. I think a combination of multiple choice and essay questions/ projects is the best option. What do you think about this ? Seema Vaid

I sometimes feel like online instructors tend to multi-task too much which results in difficulty in focusing on the task at hand. There are instant messages, e-mails, social networking sites ( too many distractions) I am finding this to be a challenge and also the reason why I procrastinate on some of the tasks. There are just too many distractions. Do any of you feel the same way sometimes ? Seema Vaid
