General+Discussion

​

Hey guys - I felt the need to add a general page because it might be helpful. I am stressed for Wednesday - I have not found any decent articles on our topic (decent meaning: articles that relate directly to our topic), and I am beginning to think that maybe we should change our topic a bit? There is a lot about job satisfaction. Maybe we should stick to that?? Are you finding the same difficulties?

Feedback from class discussion on Oct.31:
 * sponsor teachers
 * elementary focus groups - mentor/mentee program - VSB - strong mentors - ask LiAnne for information
 * teacher induction programs -programs done in other provinces
 * when they did their practicuum during the Spring? different start time for student teachers
 * preparation for Teacher Ed. program: bias - not bias - a fact - can't get someone ready for something that you can't define - situations unknown in the real teacher "world"
 * ready to begin the process to teach - wide awake - part of the process to teaching - prepared with confidence to anticipate
