Professional Development and Goals
- In my remaining time in college I will develop knowledge of inclusive teaching techniques so that all students, regardless of mental ability, will be able to learn effectively alongside their peers.
- Students learn so much from their interaction with their peers. Inclusive education creates opportunities for students to learn in a larger variety of ways.
- Taking classes such as Education 424, Education 316, and Education 317, and focusing on learning to incorporate topics discussed in these classes into an inclusive classroom.
- Another goal I have for myself in my remaining time in college is to better understand the bible and the christian faith so that I may better share that faith with others.
- Christ will be the center of my future classroom. To be able to properly teach the word of God to my students I must first understand the saving message of Christ myself, and have a strong faith life.
- I will farther develop my faith by continuing to attend church and chapel as well as taking doctrine and theology classes. I will also spend time everyday reading and meditating on God’s word.
- My third goal is to develop positive classroom management skills.
- One of the most important parts of being a teacher is the ability to properly mange a classroom. A classroom that is constantly in chaos is a classroom where not much learning occurs.
- I will reach this goal by continuing classes in the education program. I will also reach this goal by spending many more hours in field experience learning from teachers who have had years of practice managing classrooms.
