(1) What is your essential question, and what are your answers? What is your best answer and why?
What is the most effective way for a kindergarten teacher to best prepare his students for our quickly changing world?
- Teaching children how to communicate in ways that ready their minds for complex thought
- Introducing and using technology as a key tool for a child's future
- Understanding and meeting the standards set by common core
(2) What process did you take to arrive at this answer?
I reviewed my lesson plans and took what I understood the most. From that, I decided that communication was the best thing to be used since it can teach kids in several different ways.
(3) What problems did you face? How did you resolve them?
The only problem i faced was when i was trying to look up research for technology. I was looking for more of the history instead of how it was actually being implemented in today's society.
(4) What are the two most significant sources you used to answer your essential question and why?
The two most significant sources I used would have to be articles since there was so much information on my topic and where I was going with this. I also would have to say my mentorship had a lot to do with it. I gained a lot of information from the interviews I had with her and her co-worker, but most of it would be when we had one on one time and I'd shoot questions at her.
