As a veteran teacher in search of meaningful professional development I had the pleasure of taking a course with the NJ Council for the Humanities the summer of 2009. It was a week-long course entitled The 20th Century and the African American Experience. I truly not only enjoyed the week and learned more than I had expected, I also decided to break through my fear of tackling new technologies -- yes, blogging. Well, let's see how that went.
First of all, deciding what to blog was a challenge, then learning how to set up a blog and doing it was another challenge, and then trying to figure out how to maintain the blog was a another challenge. Nevertheless, I was inspired and managed to launch my blog. Although I did not keep at it the way I had hoped I would I am going to try again.
So, if you happen to visit and want to know about last summer's wonderful professional development experience you have to read my past entries. If you just want to see what happens here next, then just check in from time to time.
