Final Reflection II
I have up to this point been very successful in reaching both my Professional and Personal goals. Personally I have been incorporating more technology into my classroom both from my students and me. The use of power point has increased and my students are becoming more creative in the use of them. Some of my students were unaware of all the material that you could put on a power point slide. Students are now adding music, which has to be approved of course, and have really opened up their creative minds. Now no it is not all of the students yet but hopefully by the end of the year it will be. This makes me want to learn more about ways of using technology to reach my students. Seeing the students grasp this gives me a new fire to learn more so I can pass it on to them. Global Earth has been an awesome tool in World Geography; the students are able to see the places we are studying. I know have some students come into class telling me of places that they looked at while they were at home. That excited me because they were doing homework without knowing it or me assigning it to them. I like when my students come to class with questions of something that they have looked up by themselves. Learning is taking place and that is good.
Professionally I am in the process of taking classes to earn my Master’s degree in Administration. I will hopefully be taking a May Mini class, Instructional Leadership Development this summer and a Law class during summer session 1. These classes will put me on track to graduate with the class on time and help me towards my Administration Degree.
The value of goal setting is priceless; it gives students something to work towards. I use goal setting all the time with my athletes. We use daily, weekly, and end of the season goals. The use of goal setting works.
