Corina’s ACTLab Website

So I am about a semester or so away from finishing up course work. I have an outline for my dissertation topic. And i’m wondering what to do next. Should I start looking into the exam process? What does that require? Will a cool ACTLab course like Blackbox help?

Hopefully soon I will get together with some fellow grad students and ask for some help. I know of several other women in the same boat, so we are working together to figure out the next step. I’ll keep you posted.

So as you know I have started the journey that I call dissertation. I’m trying to figure out just exactly what steps to take and so I wrote up an outline. I then sent the outline to friends and family that I trust. It was my way of asking for permission. I have yet to asked for permission from the “elders” of the community. Unfortunately there are no clear cut elders. If I were to use a decolonialized methodology, I would ask them for permission first. So I used the next best thing, my family and friends. And so I’m waiting for a reply.

It has begun. This journey toward dissertation. I wish I knew the exact path, but if I did then it wouldn’t be as fun, I guess. This site is where I hope to share my journey. I hope to post updates, outlines, drafts, etc. So come back time to time and see what’s new.
