A group of teachers all over the world sharing the education ideas about which they're most excited? Yes please!
For this assignment, we explored teaching resources in Google Communities. There, I joined Teachers Helping Teachers, EdTech, Language and Culture Spanish, in addition to several other pages that interested me. After a bit of digging, I discovered several resources that will be useful. I'm most excited about the new educational strategies I found. I had never heard of co-teaching, in which two teachers lead a classroom, until I saw it introduced on a page. I got excited by "flipping the classroom", another strategy to use class time for discussions and projects, while doing lecture and concepts as homework in the form of a short video or reading. I also found articles that combined my passion of art and of education in an article about incorporating art. I found inspirational videos about the joy of teaching to remind myself why I chose teaching in the first place. I found links to professional development pages on Youtube. I can't wait to explore more and one day share my thoughts and resources! |
