Here's to the new Year - and in a few weeks, it will be the Year of the Horse. 2014 is also the start of a new chapter in my career as I join the STEM and Instructional Resources Dept. for the Broward County School District. In my position as a Staff Developer, I hope to be working with middle and high school teachers in bringing more hands-on science inquiry into their classrooms. I am looking forward to this new leaf in my life album!
On a semi-sad note, the art glass class that I have taught for 18.5 years came to an end with the 2013 end of the year. However, I am ever hopeful that I can find another teacher interested in continuing this course or find a community outlet so that I can continue to teach science of art glass!
I have to learn about a number of new technologies and Twitter is one of them. This blog has been attached to my Twitter account: @drcrody. While I started the blog as a way to showcase student work in the art glass class, additionally, it became a way to share science and STEM info with the conference attendees from my presentations. Now, I hope to showcase teachers and their STEM projects so I may be updating the blog more often. We shall see.
