Hi! My name is Melissa. I am currently a EMAT student at Willamette University. What does this mean? I am a technologically challenged student who is now enrolled in all online classes for the next year and a half. This could get interesting...
With that being said, I am hoping to eventually become a high school teacher. I have worked in a high school for the past five years and love it! Although, I question why sometimes, I believe this is what I was made to do. I love coaching volleyball and being a mentor to young adults during one of the most challenging times in their life.
Ideally, in a year and a half, I will be certified to teach middle school and high school students in a Biology classroom or within a Special Education classroom. Why do I say, "ideally" you ask? Seeing as this is my first term, first class of my online graduate program and the course title is "Educational Technology," let's just say... I'm screwed!
Technologically challenged ... oops, wrong interpretation.
ReplyDeleteTake another look at "THE WALL --- STEPS IN ACHIEVING A SKILL" which is on our eMAT: Assignments page. You are simply passing through the stages of learning that EVERYONE has to experience when they learn something new. Same with your girls in volleyball, or all that impossible terminology in Biology (where I am Biologically challenged).
Hang in there --- you'll be just fine.
