Dear Rachael and all,
I feel sorry for that you feel overwhelmed, and I want us all to grow from your experience and sharing!

First of all, I want you to know that I don't expect from you to prepare anything in-depth with the information I'm sending out before the session. I do this for you to have the opportunity to print out and make notes during the session, because students have reported that this helps them to structure.
I give you tasks for the week directly after the session only, so that you have time. With video lectures provided as preparation, our weekly meetings are mostly about how to use that information, and to discuss your questions. There are no "silly questions", and I am not there to judge you and your progress - we're all adult human beings!  My aim is to make the course interesting and valuable and to support every one on your own paths.

Bringing in real-life client examples and exercises is a challenge.Each symptom gives us certain information, and we can focus the client on that and track it down. In that way, as I said in class, you could make several case documentations from one client case. However, as we saw in our exploration, the big picture makes most sense!

With the breakout rooms preparation, I meant you to help each other to find the information about possible organs and the related themes in the tissue lists or the wiki or the ebook, to then be able to find out whether your guess fits by asking the client with help of our script. No more, no less!
I suppose that some of you are putting more expectations on yourselves than I do - and if that's so, we have a theme to work on first, to get happier and easier!

Please help me to help you to feel it flow!
Kora
