My Goals -- Short term vs. Long Term
Kind of cool thinking of the beginning of the school year as New Year's. Well for me. Short term goals include having a smooth school year with my third grade students. This is only my second year back in the classroom and I want to;
1.. Do more small group and individual student intervention instead of whole group teaching all day. This involves teaching my students to become independent learners.
2. Find ways to "embed" technology into my curriculum. This will be dependent on presenting content in a more creative creative "art of teaching" way and coach my students to produce content on the web.
In ESL teaching;
1. Make lessons more engaging by bringing in multimedia such as producing podcasts, developing Enlgish Learnings Blog and Making computer lab operational at the school.
In Webcasting;
1. Develop http://puentesalmundo.net site to promote and develop Spanish language webcasting on the Worldbridges network.
2. Help to bring back some life to http://eflbridges.net. Bringing resources and services to EFL students and teachers throughout the world.
3, Continue work with It's Elementary Webcast. Finding ways to promote Webcast to more elementary school teachers.
4. Webcast live from CUE California Edtech Conference in the Spring of 2008
In Personal
1. Keep the Faith
2. Find ways to be a great Dad, Husband, Son, Brother, Friend and GEEK.
