Response to Bill

"I resolve to think about what I've done well and figure out how I can perpetuate my successes in the Spring semester. I will not feel defeated about the struggles I've faced. I will take on old challenges with new perspectives. I will commit to helping my students, my school and my community leap into the digital age. Finally, I resolve never to forget why I became a teacher in the first place--to make change."

Bill says how I feel in much better language. For a number of years I have been working and making changes in the curriculum at my school and at the state level. I want to continue to make change. One change I would LOVE to see is to get teachers as excited about using technology as students are. Working with the teachers in this program and their growth has me knowing what the use of technology and training could do for all teachers.

So as I join Bill in making changes.

We've moved past the "who moved my cheese" ideas of change into new methods of integrating constant change into our lives. People's fears at this time come from the exponential speed at which change is not occuring in our society.
