My Commitments

From this class I am committing to a few key tools and be consistent and effective in my use for them, as that is what I feel is the most important part to the class. What I plan to use from this class are:

  • A blog for my math class as opposed to a Facebook page as a blog does not require students to have an account. I like this because it will allow me to connect with my students even when they are not able to be in class or at school. I also believe it has the potential to be a great tool for communicating with parents and engaging them in their student's learning.
  • A twitter feed/Feedly account. I want to commit to dedicating time for myself to reflect on my practice and refresh myself. I am committing to giving myself 1/2 hour per week to grow my capacity as a teacher and educational leader. I have not set a time for this but suspect once I get a feel for my schedule I can select an appropriate time.

  2. Chris, I am also going to do a blog for the exact same reasons. Let's keep each other accountable to following through and being consistent with its use. I am going to work on a hashtag for my class specifically but I wonder if we developed one for the math department to use to share out interesting lessons, ideas, etc. It could be a way for us to connect and share as a department in between department meetings.

    Your blog is well done and I really like the background. I forget sometimes how great wordles are. I also will make time to read the article from Scribd you shared, as I think that there is some really great information on there. Thank you!
