Week Journal 5 (16 May 2014)

 

Tips and Tops!

Significant Situation 
Learning aims:
-Report and attend a parent-teacher night.
-Report and attend Deltion's information night for new employees.

I attended both of these activities, but I'll only discuss the information night for new employees here.
During this information night I introduced myself to teachers from other sectors and we all met the director and the administration workers.

First, there was an introduction where all the teachers introduced themselves. Then we were split into two groups and we made a list of Deltion's tips and tops.

Secondly, we were given a guided tour of Deltion. We met some students from other departments during this tour, such as logistics students, and spoke to some of their teachers. This was very informative, because the army and companies sponsor different studies at Deltion, which can be seen from the logos, setting and materials. For example, the army is currently borrowing the aviation students a helicopter in order for them to practice working on up-to-date equipment and technology.

The helicopter!

Reflection

I decided to attend this gathering, because I still don't know a lot about the other sectors of Deltion. This was a great way to get to know more about Deltion.

I gave my input with regards to my first impressions of Deltion, which will help the director improve how new teachers are guided within the school.

This was important for me, because I wanted to find out more about Deltion. What is more, it was a great opportunity to get to know other teachers and to discuss the school with them.

What this says about me is that I am a curious teacher who wants to learn more about Deltion in order to understand what the school stands for. In order to help future students choose other studies, I need to know exactly what the possibilities are within Deltion.

My conclusion is that this was a very nice way to get to know other teachers, other studies and sectors that make up Deltion.

My learning aim for next week is:
-To make class assignments that students can make independently during my lesson.

Internship Progress

Next week, I'm going to be busy with 2IGH1 and 1IGH2's orals. That's why I need to design class assignments that students can make independently while I'm assessing the orals.
Until next week!
