Ms. Gierke's Reflection #1 Example
Welcome to ED2323. My name is Diane Gierke. This is an example of the Reflection #1assignment that you will need to post to your Blog page.
I graduated from the University of Arizona in Tucson Arizona with a Master's degree in Teaching Teacher Education. I have taught at the college level for 25 years. I taught this course for the first time in the fall 2011 semester. This class is definitely a fun class and I hope you will learn a lot of new technologies that you can apply to your own teaching career. It is a fun class, so don't be afraid to be creative and go above and beyond the requirements. Also, don't be afraid to ask questions.
A little about me personally. I have a husband of 30 years and two children. However, they are not kids anymore. My daughter is married and is a teacher and coach. She participated in basketball and track at ASU after high school. She is going to make me a grandmother for the first time at the end of March (very excited about that). My son just finished his college football career this last fall. So, my life revolves around my family and their activities. We enjoy all outdoor activities as a family. We also have a ranch so we enjoy our horses, cows, goats and wildlife.
I am very excited about this course. Remember to enjoy trying all the new technologies and look for ways you can really use these in your classroom. I think your students would also enjoy using some of these technologies in projects in your class.
Be sure to read all step-by-step directions in Blackboard, post any questions as a comment on our Facebook page under the correct topic, and view the class Blog page for hints and examples of assignments.
Remember that you can work ahead as all assignments are available for you. Watch those due dates and write them in a planner or calendar so you won't miss an assignment. Start early so if you have problems, we can help you before the deadline.
Have a great semester!
Diane Gierke
PS: Listen to this Voki and consider creating one for yourself for your first reflection.

Mr. McGilvery's Reflection #1 Example
Hi Class,
This is an example of reflection one. Please make sure you read the instructions on blackboard to ensure you meet all the requirements.
Hello All,
My name is Chris McGilvery and I am one of the faculty members for ED 2323. I also teach several secondary education courses. If you are pursuing a secondary certification, I will most definitely have you for another education class. I was born in San Antonio, Texas, but moved all over growing up because my father was in the Air Force. I've lived in Texas, Philippines, California, and Hawaii. My wife and I recently moved to Dominica for her education, which is located in the Lesser Antilles of the caribbean. It's a beautiful island. We sure do miss Texas though. We are both alumni of ASU. It's a great school and I am excited to be back as a faculty member. There are many reasons why I wanted to become a teacher, but now that I have been in the education field for several years I have narrowed it down. My passion for teaching comes from my desire to help others realize their potential. I hope to help you realize your potential to be a great educator that can make an impact on many lives. My Skype username is chrismcgilvery. Please make sure you add me if you are taking my section of ED2323. The image you are seeing is a beautiful sunset in Dominica. Here's to a great semester!
Kind Regards,
Chris McGilvery
