Innovation Plan Update 5320

Begining this ADL program I had no clue I would have to create an innovation plan. It took alot off hard work and dedication. Being able to come up with and created plans, rough drafts, surveys, and more was rough when first started out but ended up being fun to create and implenment.

I was givnig the opportunity to make a change and make something better for not only me but other educators, students and parents. It was a choice I had made and was willing to risk it all just to make sure my plan and voice got heard.

Thank God I didnt have to put it all on the line and was able to implentment blended learning with station rotation in an up and coming 1st grade classroom.

This was not an easy task especially being the fact that most schools I subbed at was on a strict budget and couldnt afford computers, laptop, and or tablets for the students which made it very hard to get them started with blended learning.

When reffering to an update I feel like the entire school needs an update throughout the whole system

COVA Reflections Discussion 1

Before enrolling into the ADL program here at Lamar I had no idea about COVA and couldn’t tell you what it meant but all along it was something I had been practicing with not only myself but the students I have come in contact with since working in the school district. Once I realized what COVA was, I became more interested in learning more.

When given the freedom and responsibility to be able to take ownership over how I learn and or teach through authentic learning my first initial reaction was WOW this is amazing that I have the ability to take my learning ability into my own hands without being judged. Yes, indeed I was ready because it was something new that I could learn at my own pace because it’s my freedom to be able to learn on my own at my own pace.

With the program being new and knowing that the schools needed any kind of help they could get when it came to promoting change within the organization my feelings were straight forward already kind of knowing what the targeted problem was and coming up with ways to resolve the issue.

If I do have to say so myself my innovation plan is authentic and was built from course work provided throughout the ADL program here at Lamar created by Dr. H. The passion that Dr. H has put out in the atmosphere has allowed me to be able to take this opportunity and developing my own innovation plan in order to help my organization become better when it comes to teaching and presenting information and educational resources that will not only make the educational system as a whole better but helping the students throughout their educational experience called school.

Welcome Back........5320

I would like to start off by saying Happy New Year. I was able to finish off the semester with an A. I couldn't be more proud of myself. I have to honestly say I am happy to be in my last semester of school and most importantly my Last and Final class.

This semster I have enrolled and ready to get started with learning new things I can add to my current classroom while helping myself become the best leader for my students.

Let the journey begin............
