Module 1 Reflection

Where do you fall on the rubric?
What qualities of your entries were exceptional or effective?
Which qualities are still evolving or emerging?



Examination & analysis of key course concepts: 
I feel like I have been an Effective learner. I do not yet feel like I have obtained mastery in any way, but I am striving to be engaging and thoughtful.

Use of evidence and examples:
In this category, I may be Exceptional. I tend to openly share examples from my classroom; I am open about my "novice" experiences, but I hope that this honesty will encourage others to try and grow as well. 

Presentation of Ideas:
Exceptional -- As an English teacher, I know that I communicate effectively.

Collaboration w fellow learners:
At this point I will say I have been Effective. I know that I have Exceptional within me for the future, but I have only responded to one other student at this point. 

Overall, as a newbie to educational technology, I am looking forward to gaining confidence and skills as a teacher.

As a component of my online course, I have started a blog.  I look forward to reflecting on my learning this summer. Let's start this journey!
