Even though I was a bit late because of having to go take a drug test, and then having to find the location to which the training had moved while I was driving back from the drug test, I was able to catch and learn how to create and publish blogs, use gmail and its company of apps and documents, as well as doing a little bit of pod casting.
So despite the little adventure that lead into the day, I have definitely gained a few new sets of skills. As well as reflections on how to use those skills in the classroom.
But I still do have a few questions, especially concerning which school, and which grade level we will all be placed at, what the time sheets will look like, and what's involved with them, what our relationship to our respective schools and teachers will look and work out like. And of course following all of that are the questions about how we will are divide our weekly hours. The thing I am most curious about are the 10 hours of community development.
All these questions of course I am sure will be addressed along the length of this training, or if not then, definitely during the daily working out of job . . . assuming all goes well with this week's assessment period.
And finally to your left, another picture for your enjoyment.
Josue,
ReplyDeleteI think we all had a bit of an adventure getting to the site (and I'm from Clarksdale, so imagine getting lost in your own hometown)!
Today was a great learning experience. The questions that you have about placement, etc..., I have as well, but I'm containing myself for the moment. I think we will have our answers soon enough :o)....
The podcasting, blogging, and audacity recordings were rather helpful. I took online classes, so I've done or seen each in some way or another. Although, I actually found more usages for them today, than my initial understanding of each.
Keep your head up (which I'm sure it is)!
See you tomorrow!!!

Hey Josue, you addressed the questions I think all of us are wondering. But, as you said, I'm sure they will all be answered throughout the course of this week. The picture is nice. See ya tomorrow!
ReplyDeletePod casting was a new experience for me and I found it quite interesting.
ReplyDeleteFor now, try not to worry about where you will be placed. Our goal will be to match everyone with the location that will be best for everyone involved. We definitely want you to enjoy the location you are at. And you are correct, we will be getting more into ways to interact with teachers and what it will actually be like at your school.
ReplyDeleteGlad you finally made it. I agree wit the podcasting, blogging and audacity recordings were all new to me as well. Looking forward to day two.
