Wow! End of Block 1 already…
My final project for EDUC 394 takes the form of a 10 minute YouTube video where I bribed my dearest friend, Marlee, to be my co-host and interview me.
I am extremely grateful for everything I have experienced and learned throughout the course of this block! I have already developed such an amazing sense of community amongst my professors and cohorts and I am excited to watch us all learn and grow together.
I have always known that I wanted to be an educator for reasons that I cover in my video, but the thought that my dream is rapidly becoming a reality is astounding. I will first-hand be able to experience the magic that students bring whilst simultaneously having the opportunity to impact their lives.
I would be lying if I said that this block did not offer its’ own unique challenges: from learning online to delving into subjects that were so incredibly vast that at times I felt that I could not keep my head above water. However, each time the knowledge sank in and made itself at home in my mind I felt like I was piece-by-piece becoming who I want to be.
My guiding intention that I will be bringing along with me for the duration of the program is: I would like to make sure that all of my future students feel valued and supported in the classroom in a way that is going to enable them to feel comfortable learning.
So! The link to my final project video is below, enjoy!
