As a learner, she focuses on the day's tasks, takes notes, and doesn't take time for granted. She may be +the only student that organizes her tasks prior to missing class. As a peer, Emily is thoughtful and provides students with meaningful interpretations of the tasks to help them form their own rationales. I enjoy her unique perspectives on motivation and effort. She seems like she never has a bad day, never needs a break, never whines to me about the complexity of the task-she keeps her head up and pushes through.
