Umm, are we an overachiever? Your objectives make mine look elementary. I helped Dr Tilley rewrite a course that was taught online for my 1st practicum. It was scary, fun and intimidating. I would have liked to follow it through to see how it worked out. Have you thought about what you are going to teach yet? Good luck! I'm sure you'll do great!

Shara--you have quite a few objectives, but I think many of them are related to each other. I think you will probably be achieving more than one of them at a time with the practicum experience.
I know that I have listed quite a few objectives. Beleive it or not, this was narrowed down from a list of 20. I am sure that I will be making adjustments and modifications to them throughout this course.
Hi Shara, I think you're going to have a wonderful learning experience as you meet your objectives.
