I'm not afraid to try different approaches, and very often discover new things. Collaboration among teachers increases which results in a more productive work settings. Collaboration includes not just computer skills instruction, but course development, classroom procedure development, and administrative tasks. I have appreciated all the help from former CODE 77 teachers. I am really interested in sharing my knowledge with others.
Teachers have a better sense of professional competence as a result of mastering the computer.
They believe their students see them as more professional. Everything I create is so much more professional and takes less time. I keep learning more all the time. Now I feel like a teacher of the 90's. Text-based curriculum is first strengthened by the use of technology, then replaced by more dynamic learning experiences.
