Reflection:
This standard was met with our blogs and websites. These two tools are wonderful ways to inform teachers and parents about the classroom and the intentions of the teacher. Websites are extremely useful for informing parents about the course. The website is the perfect way to introduce you as a teacher and inform the parents of expectations, experiences their children will come in contact with, contact information, schedule, philosophy, and course requirements. Once the website is posted it is simple to navigate and very easy to update and change. This website is much easier than a sheet of paper because it is always available and easy to find.
Artifacts/Evidence:
• Blog
• Website
Future learning goals:
I plan to implement this standard in my curriculum. This will help students as well as parents. Teaching the students how to navigate the web to find this teacher information is important. This will eliminate house calls and confusion. The students will have a place on the web to find information and that will give the teacher more time to plan out instruction and create activities that maximize efficiency in the classroom.
