My teacher was Tyler Rice. The first post I commented on was ttitled "It is better to burn out than fade away". He took this phrase from Kurt Cobain. This post was about how he feels about his place in education. I think that this post explained a lot of the things he was doing in education and wanted to do. He applied for and received an entrepreneurial award from the WWashington STEM. He has applied for a lot of grants so that he can get better resources to teach with, however, he does the best he can with the resources he has. He believes working hard towards a goal is important but it the goal can not be reached that he believes it is better to move on than to burn out doing something that is not going to work.
The next post from Mr. Rice was how he feels about his blog. He wants his blog to go in a different direction. he has been writing informative, persuasive, or motivational blogs, but now he wants to write reflective blogs. He hopes that he doesn't lose his followers but choosing to make this sudden change. I think that as long as he is happy with what he does than that its most important. You cant always please everyone. You have to please yourself first, you have to know who you are.
Samera,
ReplyDeleteSorry it took my so long to find your blog!
You have a lot of great stuff here, though!
I'm really envious of the experience you all are having in your class. It sounds really amazing and I think you will be well prepared for going into teaching after having had this experience.
