I would also like to extend my gratitude to Touro University and the wonderful staff and Professors associated with this program. Their support means everything to me! I'd also like to thank Cohort 14 for all of their support through this journey. A huge thank you also to my family and friends who supported me through this process. It was very helpful to bounce ideas off of you all and getting brain breaks by going out and having some fun!
Next Steps
I feel everything I have done in the program reflects all of the values that Touro University California put forth. I feel I have learned so much during this year. One thing I have mentioned before was that I’m glad that I took this journey after teaching for 5 years. During my 6th year of teaching I had Touro University guiding me. I wanted to gain more knowledge of what’s to come. Being in the program helped me better my teaching practices and helped my students better understand technology. One thing I am taking away from this journey is that to effectively incorporate technology into my classroom it has to be part of the curriculum, not just side by side with it. I need to use it to enhance my students knowledge of the curriculum. Another thing I am taking away from this program is making sure my students are effectively collaborating with each other. I would always have them work with partners, but I feel Touro helped me take it to another level.
One of the things that drew me to this program was the final product. I felt making a website instead of a paper was such a fantastic way of showcasing our work. Not only is it useful to be able to give someone a website for more information but it is having us practice what Touro preaches. It’s such a 21st Century way of presenting our research. So I will be sharing it with my colleagues. I will also share it with my principal for anyone she thinks it might be useful for. I have friends and family currently going to school to become a teacher and I will also share my research with them. As for social media, I will post my website for others to share and read. As of right now, though, I will be focusing on my classroom and making sure that I am preparing them for beyond.
