My Project

During these busy times, I would like to create a set of podcasts for teachers to reference when they have time. I will create a space to house these resources. I will continually update these podcasts to reflect teachers' needs. I will create podcasts on how to use the grading software, how to engage students in class, and tips for all of the programs we use in the district. I will also invite students to join my podcasts, so that they can talk about their experiences in the classroom. The students will be anonymous and the teacher's names will never be used. Students will share how they learn best, and what teachers' characteristics help them learn best.
