Happy Holidays from the Tip of the Day Team
The Tip of the Day team has published one final technology tip for you this semester, as a suggestion you can use over break to close out the old semester, and prepare for the new semester:
Today's Tip
Today's Tip of the Day is less about technology and teaching and more about taking time for yourself and your family as the year draws to a close. Once the end-of-semester rush of finals and grade calculations and submission has been navigated, turn off the computer for a day (or more) and enjoy the holiday time in any way you can.
I plan to do some reading and to plunk away on my mandolin -- still trying to get a consistent, error-free melodious or harmonious sound for more than a minute or two. Walking through the neighborhood and admiring all the colored lights that decorate the streets and houses provides a nice, quiet respite and can also be meditative. I also like to listen to music or audiobooks while preparing food or hanging around the house. And this might also be a great time to break out that 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle.
Whatever you choose to do this month, we wish you a healthy and happy holiday season and look forward to seeing you and picking up our work in the new year.
