I currently have a Single Subject Social Science and am pursuing an Add-On credential for Special Education.
I have used technology in a number of ways. I have made powerpoint presentations. I have used the Elmo camera, videos on computer in various ways. I have also used online videos from discovery.com
I hope to be employed as a Special Education Teacher after completing the current program at CSU San Marcos. As for where that I cannot answer yet.
I have a number of experiences in my substitute teaching in various special education settings which helped guide me to decide to pursue this course. I have the patience and interest now I need the training to be able to teach in a special education.
One thing that is unique to me is that I hold both a bachelors and masters degree in International Relations.
Hello Larry, it is always good to see another student who has been exposed to the teaching environment and is still certain it is something they want to do. The statistics of how 50% of new teachers "wash-out" within 3-5 years is something students are reminded of a number of times throughout the university courses. It certainly seems you are another person who is pursuing this profession as the "calling" it should be and I'll look forward to working with you throughout the semester so we can successfully complete this course enroute to our desired goal.
