I read an article,"Giving Students Ownership of Learning." You can find the article at,http://anne.teachesme.com/2008/10/29/giving-students-ownership-of-learning/#comment-107475.
This article was very insightful and full of interesting information. The article discussed how we need to "rethink the role of schools and educators." It also discusses how students have the "potential" to become the teachers and the educators are the motivators in helping the children succeed. I thought this article was extremely eye-opening and really showed how education has changed in the past few years and how we, as educators, need to make the students become more responsible for their learning.

New to Blogging!
Hey everyone! My name is Erin and this is my first time using a blog. I am currently enrolled in at Waynesburg University in the Education Technology Program. I am also teaching second grade in the Mt. Lebanon School District. I love working with the children and enjoy it each and every day. On top of teaching and going to school one day a week, I coach the middle school basketball team at Mt. Lebanon and also tutor after school. When I am not working, I enjoy being with my friends and family and just relaxing! :)
