Where to begin?!?!??! This was one of the most amazing and inspiring experiences I have ever had as an educator!  If we could surround ourselves with motivating and encouraging people like this all the time, I truly believe that we could do ANYTHING!   As a way to continue that feeling of support and positive thinking, I now officially have a twitter account.  I am a fan of social media, but I have never used it as a platform- and I am hoping to evolve into a new type social butterfly with my twitter account.

I don’t believe it is possible for me to to select only one moment or one instructional tool to define as the highlight of my week at NCCAT.  I believe that my overall feeling- a culmination of excitement, renewed vigor, and feeling that anything is possible is my “highlight” and a light that I hope continues to shine throughout this fellowship and the years to come.  If were were to begin getting technical with this question, I believe that the highlight of my week physically would be when I jumped into the Nantahala River off of the raft bridge…..the technological tool highlight of my week would have to be Kahoot and the other tools that allow for immediate feed back from students using computers, tablet, and phones….the educational practice highlight of my week would be learning about Flipping the Classroom and how I can make this possible even with limited technology and internet access in my students’ homes.

I am very grateful for the NCCAT experience and I look forward to the next step in my Kenan Journey!
