I need a writing refresher. Working in the IT industry, married an IT techie, and teaching technology to middle school students, answers are required to be concise, brief, and to the point. Must scholarly writing be lengthy? I do not feel I can stretch a reflection effectively to meet the requisite word count for each of the questions. Over the holiday, I hope to read the Publication Manual for the American Psychological Association and review more critically the Technology Facilitation and Leadership Standards.
My husband calls me pedantic, I admit that I am. When you ask me to check my email daily, I will. I even created a link on my iPhone to Zimbra. I also want to cite sources correctly using the APA format. As a leader, my finicky disposition has its advantages and disadvantages. As an advantage, my co-workers know that when given a task, I will think it through, and try to cover all the bases before hand. On the flip side, I have a tendency to over analyze and expect more from my peers based on my standards.
