REFLECTION ON STANDARD VII

CRITIQUES

Artifact One for Standard VII:
Trouble Shooting Handouts

The Trouble Shooting Handsout artifact was selected because it best fulfilled TF - VII.A.6.  As a member of the Technology Cadre in my school, I undertook the responsibility of receiving training on how to trouble shoot Mac computer systems and fix various problems within our school.  As part of my responsibilities, I was also responsible for sorting the various work orders out, distribute them to the members of my trouble shooting task force, keep records of what trouble shooting was completed, and maintaining appropriate operating systems.  In a school that supports technology, my responsibilities as the trouble shooting task force leader was essential to the continuation of our school's goal of integrating technology into the curriculum daily.  If the teachers don't have technology that is functioning properly, they are likely to become frustrated and give up on integrating it into their lessons.
 

Artifact Two for Standard VII: 
Eudora Syllabus

During my first year of teaching, the technology coordinator in my school saw that I incorporated technology into my lessons regularly.  For that reason, she approached me, and asked if I would be interested in joining our school's Technology Task Force.  Because of my advanced knowledge of technology, I was asked to conduct faculty in-service training on how to use our email system, Eudora.  As per administration, I met with approximately 12 faculty members weekly for a period of six- 30 minute workshops.  Various topics regarding the components and features of the Eudora program were discussed, demonstrated, and reviewed so that all members in attendance would gain a sense of comfort and possibly improve teacher productivity.
