Ok. So, does anyone else feel unprepared to begin teaching? I was panicking about my career choice today, merely because I feel so unprepared. All of my education classes at Elon have been theory based, and while I recognize the importance and significance of theory, I was hoping that one course would provide me with method and help me bridge the gap and directly apply all of the theory to the method. That's why while I was originally nervous and overwhelmed with the idea of going to this NCTEA conference thing, I am now really excited for it. I cannot wait for the idea room, and I feel that the experience will provide me with insight to a new aspect of teaching (attending conferences).
I know this is kind of a random post, but this is what's on my mind at the moment.
