I'm required to work 4 days this week...32 hours. My students are allowed to continue working pretty much 24/7, and the expectation is that I, as a teacher, will be available to help them if/when they need it. But if last year is any indication of how things normally work...when a teenager's local school is on break, he/she is not normally motivated to work on the online course. So far today, I've put in just over 3 hours of work. I've responded to every email and message that I received over the weekend (most of which were from my coworkers), and I've graded most of the work that came in late last week and over the weekend. With the 5 hours of work-time I have left today, I am down to 7 assignments that need to be graded...2 essays, and 5 quizzes.
So...most of this week, I'll just need to be on or near my computer, and keep my time running...but I have a feeling I'm going to have almost nothing to do. While I guess I shouldn't complain that I'm being paid to do nothing, I really wish the company would just give us extra days off!!
