Living Overseas

Ok, for those of you overseas this semester...

Please share your wisdom with those who are placed on your bases next fall. Things you wish you had known. Answers you can share about paperwork, access, transportation, costs, weather, internet access, calling home, etc.

Also, make sure you see the previous post about a general reflection for everyone. There are 2 prompts posted today, April 27, 2011.

Safe travels and a STRONG finish to student teaching!

Experience Reflection

Hi Everyone,
Hard to believe this life changing semester is just about over! Chris has asked me to share this prompt with you:

Reflect on your experience overall. Share what you have learned aobut teaching, learning, and yourself that will help you distinguish yourself in a job interview.

I'll also be posting another prompt for those of you overseas, so make sure you see both!

Choose a lesson and describe your strategies for eliciting student thinking and how your ongoing responses further their learning. Give examples of how students expressed their understanding of the learning target (s). Short overview of this week. Respond to each other.
