I like the variety of learning activities and opportunities offered by Dr. Burns.  Asynchronous Learning and Synchronous Learning, both appeal to me, depending on where I am on the 'sleep scale'!  As a chronic insomniac for years, I thought I knew exhaustion, for sure.  Full time teaching, however, has taught me about a whole new level of exhaustion...

A natural introvert, Asynchronous Learning might be my preference if I am especially sleep deprived.  I can choose my timing as to when I tackle the assignment.  The downside is the stress of yet another deadline. Asynchronous Learning becomes something to add to that lengthy list of things to do.

Synchronous Learning, on the flip side, can be 'checked-off' immediately.  It does, however, have its own stress; getting out of school on time, battling traffic, and settling in for class time.  I'm not a fan of headphones and worrying if technology will let me down.  I also miss the personal connection of seeing you all face-to-face.  

My mamma taught me that 'variety is the spice of life'!  Each of us will have our preferences regarding class activities, including our students.  Mixing things up keeps us all on our toes!  Thanks, Mom (and thank you, Dr. Burns)!
