Time to get movin’
Since August I’ve been in the one high school in our district every day. I have a desk, a phone, a chair and a routine. Starting Monday, that will all change. The Technology Integration Specialists are being set free. We each have our own schools to support and will start moving into them to help teachers.
While this is an exciting prospect, I will once again be “making my way” in a new building. I’ll still be in the high school on a regular basis through December, but it just won’t be on a daily basis.
I’ve been struggling with my new role as a professional development person with technology as opposed to a classroom teacher. There is a distinction between the two and I’m trying to come to grips with how to change my thought process so that I’m the coach rather than the teacher. I’ve enjoyed moving from the classroom, but I’m not yet sure what my “path” will be as the year continues whizzing by.
