Road to being a Master Teacher
I am not comfortable yet with the title “Master Teacher”, but I’m sure I will get over that issue eventually. Anyway, I’m simply better, because I have a whole host of techniques and tools that I can pull out of my notebook as needed. Yes, I still have that NTI notebook and keep it close. It is hard for me to pinpoint exactly with what lesson or particular day that happened, but overall I can see the difference in the way I teach over the past few weeks. I’m looking for more and more ways to use cooperative learning at least in one of my class (Information Technology). I find it very easy to implement in this particular class. It is still quite a challenge for my Keyboarding and Computer Applications Class. I’m not sure why, but I feel that this class is best suited for “lecture”. That is almost scary word these days, because I would really love to find a way to make this more project-group oriented type class. When I figure out how to do this for the Keyboarding and Computer Applications Class, hopefully by the end of this school year, I may feel more comfortable with the title “master teacher”.
