Welcome to My Goals as a Kenan Fellow

After my feelings subsided about being selected as a 2015-2016 Kenan Fellows, my vision begin to take focus. Once I complete my Kenan Fellowship of working with wearable devices, I will have gained a better respect for collaborating with fellow teachers to design curriculum which will introduce OneHealth, explore the TI Sensortag, and improve my students approach to the engineering design process.

Being a Kenan Fellow will be a different experience for each teacher. Incorporating hands-on learning while maintaining my math curriculum allows me the opportunity to get my students closer to the STEM approach. My teaching career will improve through the lessons created to include community involvement and educate parents/students about Onehealth.

My yearly goals include professional development in several areas. This year I will use my Kenan Fellows experience to improve my students’ love for hands-on-learning. The engineering design and incorporating PBL will add more to my skills as a teacher. Educating the community/parents through presentations about Onehealth and encouraging them to join our class for learning will also show leadership in the school and community.
