Philosophy and Goals
Lifelong learning and innovative teaching are my passion! I love seeing how creativity, forwardthinking and technology can combine to engage students and turn them into lifelong learners.
I make it
a priority to make lifelong learning a habit and want to transfer that enthusiasm to my students.
Just as
I have taken control of my own professional development through webinars, conferences, workshops,
and community; I encourage my students to take control of their learning.
I incorporate their interests
and talents when writing their individual learning plans, and involve them in the process.
There are
creative ways to engage the learner, including the use of technology tools, web 2.
0 and learning
communities.
I want to empower them to be successful learners, preparing them with 21st century
skills of: creativity, innovation, critical thinking, problem solving, communication and collaboration.
To
help me learn better ways to do this using technology, I will be participating in the Masters of
Instructional Technology program at California State University, Sacramento in January 2010.
Besides teaching, I am on a quest to bring educational technology, web 2.
0 and social
networking to my school.
There are several projects that I am working on with these goals in mind.
I
have started a Ning network for my school for collaboration.
This summer, a team and I will begin a
year-long effort in curriculum design.
We are writing online unit studies which incorporate critical
thinking, writing, engaging projects, and web 2.
0.
We plan to put it all in Moodle by the fall of 2010.
I am interested in technology tools that facilitate collaboration, communication and creativity.
I
enjoy reading about Innovative Teaching, Educational Technology, Web 2.
0, and learning in
community through Social Networking.
I am working on a book that I hope to have done in a year,
which focuses on these topics.
Additionally, I have started writing an online learning module to help
teachers and homeschooling distance educators become familiar with web 2.
0 tools.
I ve called it
Project 2.
0.
The blog and wiki for it will be posted to my blog soon.
My educational view continues to take shape as I learn more from books, workshops, and professional
development; are mentored under different administrators I ve worked for; and grow in the midst of my
personal learning network.
I value people and the two-way communication for learning that we can
share.
I work best in the team model where collaboration can take place.
It is my goal to put an
emphasis on making connections, collaborating on projects, mentoring others, and learning in
community.
