Dictionary coming along

More than 1/3 the way through editing and formatting the dictionary.  Certainly taking longer than I had ever hoped but honestly the results is so far fantastic.  This certainly will be a HUGE aid to future PE exam takers.  I certainly wish I had a tool such as this available when I was taking the exam.  Not sure if will be able to finish and publish by Fall 12 exam but trying …

Done teaching for Spring 2012

Just finished teaching my last class this Spring in Columbus, OH.  Class was great and they should all pass WR/ENV AM and PM for those taking depth.

OK, now back to editing the dictionary.  To date, edited just 532 of 10706 definitions (just a hair under 5%) – so many more to do!

Water Resources and Environmental Dictionary Really Coming Along!

Just a quick note for those anxiously awaiting dictionary.  I finally finished compiling and formatting the all terms yesterday.  Now, I am left with the tedious task of rewriting, removing duplicates, etc.  While boring, it will be satisfactory to review each and every term one last time.  With over 10,000+ terms, my goal is be completed with this exercise by end of April?  We’ll see …  I’ll keep you updated.  As of today I am still on track to publish by mid-summer.

Now Teaching PE Classes

Just finished teaching PE review courses in Miami, FL the weekend of Feb 11-12th and in Newark, NJ the weekend of Feb 18-19th.  Both classes were excellent and should have no trouble with the Water Resources and Environmental portions of the PE – Civil exam.

Now back to formatting that dictionary … My goal is to finish all the formatting by the end of March, rewrite certain definitions in April-May, preview in June and publish in July 2012!

Dictionary progress update

For all those interested, I am making good progress on the dictionary.  I have finalized the word list and am currently formatting the definitions.  Once formatting is complete, I will merge duplicates and re-write most to condense definitions.  After that, simply getting the dictionary into publication shape and forward to printer.
