graduate experience thus far has exceeded my expectations. I was prepared to do a considerable amount of reading and feared that I might find too much of it to be overly theoretical and dry. I was surprised and pleased to find that much of the reading will apply directly to my work in the field of teaching. The most enjoyable aspect of the graduate experience has been the discussion and collaboration with other students. People vary in age and with respect to personal and professional experience. Everyone brings a unique view to the course work and we are all in pursuit of a common goal. It has been helpful to see other perspectives besides my own.

The lesson planning activities have been rewarding, as well as a tremendous amount of work. I have gained greater insight into the process because of the detail with which we approached the task. I was forced to think of each lesson from my own perspective, as the teacher, but also from the point-of-view of the students.
It is interesting to consider questions students might have, and it makes me think about more than one way to explain a concept to a student. This has really helped clarify my understanding that students respond to lessons in different ways. As a teacher, I will encounter different learning styles among my students. Some styles will be comfortable to me, while others will feel foreign. I realize that if I can at least understand the viewpoints of students with other learning styles, it will enhance my own understanding and thus help me be a more effective teacher.
