Part II: Reflection

CANDIDATE REFLECTIONS:
(Minimum of 3-4 sentences per question)

1. Briefly describe the field experience. What did you learn about technology facilitation and leadership from completing this field experience? I had to do a principal interview and discuss what the principal thought about technology coaching and the technology that is being implemented in the school. I learned about all of the different ways to gain understanding about someone comfort level with technology, change, and new ideas. I learned about all of the ways that I can be affective in coaching others and gaining their trust and respect. 2. How did this learning relate to the knowledge (what must you know), skills (what must you be able to do) and dispositions (attitudes, beliefs, enthusiasm) required of a technology facilitator or technology leader? (Refer to the standards you selected in Part I. Use the language of the PSC standards in your answer and reflect on all 3knowledge, skills, and dispositions.) I must know how to assess the level of technology usage and comfort with the staff that I am working with. I must have the tools and skills to do this and this class gave me a great arsenal of surveys and ideas in which to assess these things. I have to be abe to change my disposition based on the personalities of the people that I am working with so that I can be a better coach. 3. Describe how this field experience impacted school improvement, faculty development or student learning at your school. How can the impact be assessed? It affected my ability to help others. This will in turn help improve the school. I read several case studies that will allow me to apply better practices at my school. I learned about the change theory which will help me be more affective in the change that I wish to affect. The impact will be able to be assessed after school starts and I am able to implement all of the ideas that I have brewing in my head.
