Fifth day, Monday 18 October 2010

Although I did not get into bed until 5.30 am, I did not get most of the tasks listed done.
I got lost of other useful stuff don on UEL Plus and replied to student emails as well as a PhD enquiry from a promising source.
Got up late.
Voice was fully back but throat was sorer than yesterday.
I really wanted to stay home to 'rest and recover' but to do so would have let work pile up for later.
At work, there were more registrations to process and the EDUCOM ED3000 (the independent research module) issues to deal with.
Who is going to guide and support the EDUCOM students doing the module?
Have finally got my hands on the project proposals so that I can give students feedback on their proposals and encourage them to produce dissertations that will reflect their degree title and be useful to their carers.
Just managed to get the programme for EDED1010 ready before the Academic Advice and Guidance lecture which precedes the ED1010 Children in Their Social Contexts lecture at 6 pm.
Toms Power Point for the lecture was already in UEL Plus but I had not finished preparing the one sheet programme that I usually produce for each lecture.
Perhaps I should start counting how many emails have been I have received in a day and how many were sent. Although this would not  be any measure of the work done.
I made some corrections to AEL applications for Tuesday's panel meeting but did not finish and the applications are still not fully ready.
Tom did the ED1010 lecture so my role was just to introduce the session.
Picked Niilante up on the way home and dropped off other Spartans before getting home.
At home I finished work on the worksheet for the ED1015 visit to the Museum of London in Docklands the next day.
Niilante finished off making the shepherd's pie that I started in the morning and that he had continued in the afternoon.  It was very delicious and eating it eased the soreness of my throat.  I ate to much.
Heating has still not been fixed.
Went to bed with a hot water bottle.
