The past week has been moving along very fast. I'm still nervous with school and all seeing as though everyone in the class is a teacher except for me and one other student. When I met with my group on Sunday night I actually enjoyed it. We discussed our information and worked on our project together. I like that we have "vRoom" and we use elluminate to speak and meet with one another. However; I'm still nervous.
I hope that I learn a lot out of this class and keep being focus. I've been out of school for 2 years and my mind is preparing slowly but surly. I was excited to see that Cardinal Stritch offered an MEIT program for Instructional Technology. After reading the description of the class I immediately applied for the program. My goals are to help individuals learn what I have a passion for, teach in/at a school or university. A lot of things are going on in my mind right now. I feel like I'm all over the place in this blog.
Later y'all....

ReplyDeleteNo need to worry about not being a teacher! In working with you the other night it seemed that you are very ready to go ahead with the learning so you can teach! You seem very motivated and I to was excited after reading the class descriptions. I don't think that your background outside of teaching will hinder you at all in this Cohort. I feel that it is a breath of fresh air to have someone outside of teaching who can shed an "outsiders" point of view on things.
Hi Jessica,
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed working on the assignment Sunday night. I'm sure everyone in the group will enjoy your insight from outside the teaching profession. I think as educators it is important to get that perspective because most of our students will be entering the workforce outside of education. Your viewpoints and insight will be valuable.
