EDLD 5352 In regards to everything else...

In this course I did something that I thought I would never do. I successfully collaborated with people I never met. This amazed me, primarily due to the fact that in all my prior experiences in learning, I was never able to pull off a group project in a manner that felt as though the work-load was equally shared and everyone did what needed to be done. As far as campus internship hours are concerned, I was able to add only a handful this summer by participating in writing the master schedule and fulfilling a few other duties that are required to my new job description (District Wide Dean of Students). It seems as though it would be an easy task in a district that is composed of only a little over six hundred students, but I think that this can make it more difficult. We as a school are, what I would consider, short on teachers and therefore unable to offer as many classes as we need to offer to give students a broad base in education beyond just core classes. At the moment, I have 124 campus based internship hours. When it comes to my Action Research Project, I have completed my initial draft and only need to complete final comparisons of initial data to final data.
