Blog Reflection #4

The learning tenent that I chose this week was how Assessment For Learning should be regarded as a key professional skill for teachers.

I feel that teachers are trained to used technology as a supplement to instruction rather than an assessment for learning. It is evident in my research article that this is predominately how teachers are currently using technology however their desire for more training is also evident. How do we address this? I believe that it starts with professional development design. If we have established the argument that our children are changing, then we can't continue to train our teachers the same. This is absurd.

The creation of a portfolio will help me not only to learn what is out there to utilize within the classroom, but will also help me to have a collection of artifacts for bookmarks as I enhance my proficiency.
