New Extra Credit Opportunities!

I have had the great fortune this week to attend seminars by two outstanding educators and I want to share them with you. If you are truly serious about having a career in education, I strongly encourage you to watch the videos of these seminars and reflect on them. To get extra credit, watch a video (or watch both and do two reflections) and write a reflection including 3 things you learned from the presentation in your blog.

Patti Harrington
State Superintendent of Public Education
Topic: Education in Utah
Approx. 45 minutes

Listen rather than watch. The video's REALLY bad!
If you went with me to this presentation, you're welcome to just reflect on that experience.

Carol Ann Tomlinson
Master educator at the University of Virginia Curry School of Education
Topic: The differentiated classroom
Approx. 1 hr. 45 min.
