What does it mean to be a teacher-leader in the digital age?
A teacher leader is someone who is leading the change in use of technology. They need to be willing to watch for new technology, learn how to use it and implement it in the classroom, try it in their own classroom, share their experience with other teachers, and train other teachers to use the same technology. A teacher leader also needs to show excitement with new technologies. If they express frustration, other teachers will not be interested in trying something new.
How will you use what you have learned in this class in your future course, unit, and lesson planning?
I find myself using many of the strategies now. When revisiting my lessons from previous years, I am thinking of new ways to present the information and assess my students using new technologies, strategies, and variety.
I have been slowly going back through my on-line content in order to add links to standards and objectives. I realize that is important for students to see that there is a purpose for every activity. It is not something we are doing just to take up time; we are doing it in order to learn something important.
