Chapter 13: Improving Teachers and Schools, and School Reform

Upon graduating from UMF, I hope to have added mentoring, Practicum, and Student Teaching to my resume. All three of these experiences will make my resume stronger because they will give me experience in the classroom, working with various students of different backgrounds.  I would also like to be able to substitute teach, which will also build my resume by giving me experience in the classroom, but I think it will give me confidence in ways that the other opportunities might not, especially in areas such as classroom management.

Within the first five years of my teaching career, I hope to be working toward obtaining a Master's Degree and National Board Certification. Both accomplishments would demonstrate my qualifications as a teacher and my professional standing.  I would also like to attend as many professional development workshops and conferences that will continue to improve my abilities as a teacher.  I would also like to assist in implementing more technology into my school, because I believe that technology will be a powerful force in the realm of education and in society in years to come.
