Course Reflection

I can honestly say that every lesson in the course has been very helpful in giving information I could use in my classroom. This year my teaching assignment has changed, I will not be in the classroom instead I will serve as the district academic coach. Although I did not know this at the beginning of the course, the information provided will with a doubt help me better serve the students in my new role. One of my responsibilities will be to help the teachers in my district to differentiate instruction for all students, as well as to train them on how to use technological tools like the active boards. This course has provided me with many useful websites that will help me to show teachers ways to differentiate instruction. Another useful piece of information this class has helped with is how to use inventories and assessment that will help determine what type of learners are in the classrooms at my school. One of the first things I will do during the first week of school is to provide teachers with the assessment so they can complete them with their students.
