Starting PIDP3260 Professional Practice

The journey continues...finally the second to the last course in PIDP.

The focus of PIDP3260 Professional Practice is the use of feedback mechanisms to guide instruction and to improve one's professional practice. This feedback is given by students, colleagues, mentors, our supervisors, and our own self-reflection. The course introduces issues, themes and concepts of effective instruction, instructor competencies, informal/formal assessment and evaluation, as well as ethics, professionalism and career management - topics that are not commonly covered in teacher's education courses. I have already seen the clear relevance of this course after a brief preview. Although blogging is not a requirement in this course, I will continue to use it to document my learning journey.
