My biggest takeaway from this class is the power of observation. I was moved by the #observeme movement and even volunteered to have my teammate observe me and participate in my formal evaluation cycle for her Type 75 certification program. It was very liberating to open myself up to critique from my peer and welcome her to my pre/post-conference meetings with my principal. I enjoyed creating a google form and becoming the evaluator and watching my teammates as well. It really gave me perspective on what principals have to do during our evaluation cycles.

I was really challenged by planning a 30 minute, online, self-paced professional development on the introduction of Twitter. I incorporated some tricks that we've learned through this journey and linked a few slides in my presentation. I am glad that I have more tools in my toolbox because of this curriculum. I was inspired to do this self-paced training on Twitter based on our Capstone Project and asking teachers to use Twitter. I remember how resistant we were at the beginning of this program and how far we've all come. I thought that these "baby steps" into Twitter would be a good first start!
