Introduction
I have started this blog as a requirement for a Theory and Pedagogy of English Instruction class, part of my M.Ed. program in English Education. I am excited about the potential outcomes of weblogging, and I hope that this will become a platform for reflection on learning about teaching, particularly about English instruction, as well as an opportunity for the development of a professional learning community. I expect this blog to be a place for the initiation of thoughtful, professional discourse in areas which might include (but are not limited to) the following:
- literacy
- writing
- literature studies
- professional issues in education
- education philosophy
My teaching philosophy is still in the formative stage. Actually, I believe it will always be in a formative stage, so I suppose I should say that it is currently under development. I look forward to many great insights from responders that will help me to make sense of it all.
