EDLD 5370 Web Conference - Week 1

During Week 1 of this course, I participated in the Web Conference led by Dr. Abernathy by watching the recording. I actually began my Educational Technology Leadership journey in January of 2010; and it became very apparent as I read through the assignments and watched the Web Conference that the program had changed significantly. While Dr. Abernathy answered all the participants’ questions and provided some samples, but I felt completely lost; References to “principal cert only” meant nothing to me. I thought I was in an Educational Technology course. My response was to contact my I.A. to verify the course requirements that were in place when I began the course as part of Cohort 10. So, now I am working on completing EDLD 5370, a course that no longer exists!

The idea of getting Principal Certification concurrently with Educational Technology Certification is very intriguing. If I ever get through this course, I might just take the extra classes needed for that certification. Meanwhile, I am plugging along, trying to put everything together, and I am really excited about completing the requirements for my degree!
