Student Teaching: Week 1 Review

1011920_number_01With the end of what for many is the first week of student teaching, I wanted to look around at some of the blogs out there written by student teachers. I expect my Student Teaching Project to grow over the course of the semester, but for now I want to look at all of the student teaching related posts I know of from this week.

There’s the wrapup for this week. I’m sure I missed some. If I missed your blog, let me know! I’d love to hear from you.

  1. Great round-up, Joel – I’ve made sure to add all of the other student teachers to my blogroll so I can check on how other student teachers are progressing. I can already tell that there are some things that don’t change much about student teaching from what others have posted!

  2. Hi everyone,

    I just wanted to let you know that I start my ST next week, so that is why I have not posted. I am curious, did anyone else receive any guidelines from your college about blogs? I am being warned to be very careful. I will just post on teaching strategies or things that are not specific to students or the school where I am teaching. Now I’m nervous about posting at all! Is anyone else facing these fears?

  3. TeacherMom, I haven’t received any guidelines about blogs, although we were cautioned about Facebook and Myspace (neither of which are problems for me, since I only use FB and have my profile set to private with no potentially embarrassing information). I would say that protecting students’ identities should be a consideration, but even if you don’t get into student interactions, there should be plenty to post about. You should be careful, but don’t be too anxious about it, I think.

  4. TeacherMom, I have posted nothing even remotely incriminating or controversial, but I have made the decision to avoid using my name or indicating my specific location.

    I sure wouldn’t go out there posting about what Melissa did in class today or what Ralph’s mom told me. I also would avoid saying anything identifiable about your university or specific school district. Be careful, but don’t be fearful.
