Wk 3 - Publishing/Presentation - A Personal Comment

I still haven't really decided to publish or to present. I think in this blog I was suppose to write about where I would publish my project. I would like to say nowhere but I don't think I have a choice. This project like many of things I do is personal. I take classes and training to improve my skills as teacher so I can be more effective in my profession. I am always glad to share my ideas but I need no recognition. I have really enjoyed my journey through this project and have learned a lot that will affect my students in the future. It is my hope that as the students hone their video production skills they will take those skills into the classroom and personal life. I don't need the approval or disapproval of the academic community to validate my goals. I truly enjoy working on the sidelines and letting the students or adults I teach shine for me.

I completely understand your sentiment about this. It's not about us, it's about our students. Imagine the impact we can have on our students when we enable/work with their teachers. That's the point of the project. It's not a "hey, look at me!" kind of thing. It's about taking the hard work you've been doing and pushing it to the next level to enable many more than would be otherwise reached. Hang in there.
