@i-want-tacoss asked: what do you do when your brain fog is real bad in a lecture? cause honestly it be bad some days ya know man.
I thought long and hard about this! I get a lot of brain fog too, so this was something I had to prepare for.
I’ll be recording my lectures on my laptop so I can always listen to them again at a later time. This helps with brain fog and memory loss, so it’s two birds with one stone for me. 😁 And if I have a day where I’m just not getting what the professor is saying, I can talk to them after class or go for tutoring!
Brain fog can be super bad for awhile, so if it’s not letting up you can also ask for homework and project extensions to give you more time. Extended tests are also available.
It is possible to get a recording device as an accommodation, but I can’t get one yet because I’m not formal diagnosed with something it would be a ‘reasonable’ accommodation for. I believe you can also get free tutoring if you have something that affects learning. So if you can’t afford these things yourself, talk to the disability office! They’ll be willing to help.
