My professional blog!

My professional writing blog can be found at Educational Discourse. My focus is leading during this time of change. We are at the cusp of changes in education but what they will be, how we will embrace them and how they will affect our students are unclear. I take time to discuss what I believe will be important influences and the work the school staff and I are doing to enhance the learning of our students.

Part of the discussion I’ve been having with Arthus and Steve Hargadon, of Ning

Teacher, teacher can you hear me?

When I first began teaching, one of the most stressful times was when
the director would come in to supervise/evaluate. I knew when he was
coming of course but, still, it would cause me no endless stress. Would
the lesson work? Would the students listen? Would I remain my
composure? The lesson was orchestrated and each time, thank goodness,
it went without a hitch. This is how it was for the first two years of
teaching. After that, like most other teachers to whom I've talked, I
didn't really se… Continue
