Seminar

I’ve arrived back at school for the semester and an intense regime of class has begun. Each day we have 6 hours worth of class to prepare us for student teaching in 8 days. We have two classes, Assessment and Evaluation and Professional Studies. On top of that we also have a seminar on student teaching that deals with some issues and challenges that we’ll face in our beginning days.

So far we’ve talked in depth about teaching as a profession, No Child Left Behind, tenure, classroom management, and assessment. All non-education students say that the student teaching semester is a joke, I have a feeling that they would all be surprised about the amount of work we’re doing.

I’d like to write more but I have a paper and a 30 minute presentation to prepare for.
