Dusk falls on TPTE 486...

It has been a wild ride through Theory and Practice in Teacher Education this summer. We completed the same coursework in only a few weeks that is normally done over the course of an entire semester. I am very happy with the structure of the course, because as a transitional program student, I have little time to waste. The rubrics and the the course packet were frustrating at first because I am not accustomed to using them. However, they proved to be a useful organizational tool and I will likely employ their use in my classes next year. Dr. O'bannon and Amy Kelly-Graham did a fantastic job introducing us to several very useful technological resources that will improve the interactivity, the instruction, and the learning in my classes next year.
