As an education, I try my best to let my students know that I care about them and that I want what's best for them and their futures. I try to teach them that their actions/behaviors, and their attitudes towards learning affect their futures. I try to stay positive and not show my students andy negativity because for some students, negativity is all that they see and hear. I do my best to encourage my students everyday and every chance I get. To me, education shoud be student centered instead of teacher centered. Although teacher centered would be easier for me and other teachers, but it is not what's best for the students.

I teacher because I enjoy working with kids. I like to see the excitement on their faces when they learn something new. It's a joy watching them grow and change throughout the year and over the years. Sometimes, a teacher is the only positive role model in some student's lives. I feel like having that person in their lives can/will have a positive affect on the student's lives and in their future. I teach the way I do because I believe taht all students can learn. I want them to enjoy learning and to have a positive attitude about education and their furture.

I am not sure as of yet if my career path will include a degree in technology. Hopefully this class will help me in my decision. I know that technology is our future, and that in my profession it is very important. Technology is important in schools because it outside of school, it occupies the majority of our students lives (computers, ipods, video games, etc.).
