Good Morning EDL 605:

I hope this email finds you well. It was nice seeing you all Saturday. I deeply appreciated your hard work and contributions to our discussion. I am impressed with your progress on the self-study and the creative design of your courses in Atlas.

We began class with a review of your practice CAT. As a class, your performance on the practice bodes well; with a bit more prep, I am confident you will all develop the skills necessary for success on the School Improvement Modules this June. I will give you a second practice CAT on April 30th at the start of our final class. This will be an optional assignment. For those of you who have already taken the CAT, or are confident that you are ready for the CAT, you may arrive in …show more content…

At this point, you should be writing your narratives for each indicator, an executive summary, a rating, and a list of strengths and needs. On Saturday, April 16th, each group will lead a discussion about their group’s self-study. Please do not prepare a PowerPoint or anything special, simply bring copies of your executive summary, rating, and list of strengths and needs, and lead the class through your report. Plan to spend 15-30 minutes discussing your findings, and talking about what the school you researched needs to do to move towards an exemplary rating. After the NEASC discussions, I will review how to use the self-study process to write your school improvement …show more content…

For your fully developed unit, I will be looking for activities that reflect the research on student motivation. Pease ensure that the activities in your fully developed unit capitalize on autonomy, mastery, and purpose.

Between now and Saturday, April 16th, please do the following:

1. Finish your NEASC Self Study Reports.
2. Read sections 1 and 2 in Rigorous Curriculum Design. Sections 1 and 2 in Rigorous Curriculum Design will help guide you as you continue working on your course in Atlas.
3. Read Beyond the Blueprint. If you are teaching a grade 3-12 course, align your fully developed unit to the literacy standards in Beyond the Blueprint. Use the literacy strategies in Beyond the Blueprint, and other before, during, and after reading strategies as you complete the “Literacy Strategies” section in Atlas.
4. Read the articles on motivation posted in Blackboard. Use the articles and our discussion about motivation to design activities for your units that capitalize on what the research tells us about student motivation and engagement through the creation of learning opportunities that capitalize on autonomy, mastery, and purpose.
5. Continue working on the one unit you are fully

Throughout reading “Commencement Speech, Kenyon College”, I found this short story very inspiring to read as I found myself doing more research for this essay because I was so interested in it. Wallace was very reluctant to give this speech because he wasn’t sure he was ready to talk in front of 400 graduates and what if what he had to say was ordinary not something that would stick with all these students the rest of their lives. Reading this speech through the first time the tone particularly stuck out to me, a direct yet casualness in the way he made his argument really made this go from ordinary to extraordinary. Starting off with water and ending with water tied the essay into one big loop with many messages within it but a central message central the main idea water. Water comes within many forms like ice, evaporation, solid liquid, colored or even clear and so many more.

I was very honored to know that I qualified as a possible candidate for the National Honor Society. To be honest, I never thought of being in the National Honor Society. Therefore, when I got pulled out of class I immediately thought I had done something wrong. I went home that day and told my mom about it. My mom looked me in the eyes and told me that she was very proud of me and gave me a big hug.

Optimism is hopefulness for the future, and, like me, most people get their optimism from their roots, or how they were brought up as a child. My parents would always remind me from a young age that being pessimistic will not help you achieve your goal, so you might as well be optimistic and try. They have always taught me from a young age, and never denied or doubted, that with optimism comes opportunity, and that optimism is, in fact, the key to success. Over the years, I’ve learned that the more optimistic you are, the more creative you can be. With optimistic attitude, one can generate new ideas and create possibilities to move forward faster and more efficiently than at normal times, due to an open mind.
