Okay, it is time to take a breath and catch up on everything that is due or needs work. I imagine that you are all juggling a few assignments right now. Tonight, I want to check in with everyone individually to see how things are going, answer any questions, and give feedback on the current state of your blogs. Tonight is a good time to take a look at the Emerging Technology Checklist to ensure you are describing your artifacts and accounting for the NETS standard in the title of the post. If you are the one person who is all caught up with everything up to this point, you can start the TaskStream narratives for NETS-T III, IV, and V.
TaskStream narratives: everyone has received feedback on the NETS I narrative in TaskStream that has submitted work. Please go to your account and check your work. You can use your Inspiration graphic organizer to guide you as you write the remaining narratives. You are also welcome to continue to use Google Docs to share your writing with your peers to receive feedback. You do not need to use the same group as your NETS I group, you can start a new document and share with another peer and/or me. My goal is for everyone to have the narratives completed and in TaskStream for our last class meeting.
Here is a link for some sample narratives
All of the journal articles have been assigned (see last week's blog entry).
Next week: we are going to be learning iMovie. Please bring headphones with you as you will need them when you are editing your movies. This will be the last new assignment of the semester ;-) We will not be having class the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.
This Week's Question: What would be your ideal teaching job? If you are not an aspiring educator, what is your ideal job?
My ideal teaching job would be a 5th grade class or 6th grade language arts class or social studies. I would like to work at a school in my community, maybe one my children have attended.
ReplyDeleteI really really want to be a high school math teacher but I was enrolling in the upper division math classes and saw the every Friday schedule so I switched to middle school math, hopefully just being able to pass the tests so I don't have to take other classes. But if I was not going into teaching I would really want to go into the music buisness, not so much like being on stage but definitly producing and managing!

ReplyDeleteMy ideal job would be to be a coordinator of an afterschool program where i had the liberty to help the kids with anything they need help with academicly as well as hold fun lessons about things that their school is not going over or doesnt have in their curriculum. I would love to have the liberty to teach students what they want to learn and are interested in as well as help them excell in their classrooms.
ReplyDeleteMy ideal job would be teaching physical education at the middle school level. Many of the kids become obese or overweight by the age of 12. They really need to be educated about the serious problem of obesity. I would like to make a change on them and most important to like P.E.

While i teach i would also like to coach soccer on my spare time. And if i was not to going into education i would still like to be playing soccer for my career.
ReplyDeleteMy ideal teaching job is any grade K-5 at Maryland Elementary School in Vista. I live very close to the school and the students who attend that school are an important part of my community. I have worked in the school before in after school programs and I feel very strongly that there is a need for community outreach in that school. The students of that school deserve better academic support. My desire is to provide that for them and I believe I can start by taking a teaching position there. I promised the students that one day I would return as a teacher in their school, so I will make sure that I follow up on that.
