It seems that I could change or improve on a few things but
for now I will stick with standards. In cosmetology we have the Georgia Performance
Standards and State Board of Cosmetology Standard. Then there is Reading across
the Curriculum, Science and Math. Teachers will talk about their standards and
not have to think about it. Here I still have to look them up to talk about
them.
Another
thing is, which standards do I really focus on? The Department of Education
gives us the GPS but they really do not match up with Georgia State Board of
Cosmetology standards. The Georgia State Board of Cosmetology is really what we
need to be focused on for the students to reach their final goal, their Master
Cosmetology License. But, if I do not use DOE’s then…..
I agree with you Michelle. In HSTE we have standards from the DOE and in our 3rd year we have standards from the State Board for Nursing Assistants. It's confusing and can be overwhelming.

ReplyDeleteI feel the same way. Sometimes I feel like it is the first day at a new job and I have no idea what I am doing. I get easily embarrassed in a crowd of other teachers because they know all the abbreviations for all the different types of groups, organizations, clubs or even subjects. I usually have to whisper to someone next to me and ask them what does those initials stand for.
