Technology education is the foundation of building blocks for a future
career. Like the pyramids of Egypt a student needs to have all of the
essential elements of a good foundation. The building blocks consist of
professionalism, knowledge, and the desire to succeed. I want my
students to think of my class as their first job in life. I want them to act
as professionals, and produce professional work. It is my job to teach
them how professionals act in the real world, and inspire them to follow
the example. Professionals are on time, prepared, and possess the
knowledge necessary to perform the job. It is my job to impart as much
of this knowledge as possible to the student so that they are prepared
for life.
The goal for my class is to learn real life elements that can be applied
across many fields of training, and career choice. They need to realize
that for many their education is just starting in public school, and that
education is a life long experience. Technology has changed all jobs
and will continue to change the jobs of the future. I would like to involve
the parents of the community in the learning process and give real life
examples of how technology has changed their job. Many students will
need to attend a school of higher education to pursue the career of their
choice.
The habits, values, and knowledge that they establish in school will
follow them for the rest of their lives. Forming good work habits,
attitudes, and knowledge is essential for success in life. Knowledge is
one thing in life that can never be taken away from you.
