So I have a new job - and it is a pretty busy job. I am a Technology Integration Specialist for a local Elementary school. I am basically an "IT" person. I never thought I would have a job like this. I have experienced many opportunities to supervise classrooms for teachers in all grade levels. I have narrowed down my desired grade level from any elementary grade, to 1st - 4th.
When it comes to integrating technology into the student's education, well that's the easiest part of my job. I just have to make sure all of the technological equipment stays up and running and fill whatever needs may arise. I've created numerous power-point presentations, movies, document templates, and printable materials for teachers and administrators.
I'v also amassed a large quantity of teacher created materials and printable documents.
My favorite part about my job is the ability to teach in a classroom for a brief period of time. I've been provided with an opportunity to fine-tune my teaching ability, but really flex my teaching "muscles" as well.
Over the past few months I've spent time getting to know my teachers, administration, and students. Overall, it's a great job that will hopefully help propel me into a classroom position.
