Evidence #2: Weekly Reflection Journal
View File My second evidence is my weekly reflective journal for EDE 4942 Level II Internship. In this reflection to my supervising professor, I discuss my experiences learning about the electronic grade book ‘EasyGrade Pro’ and my comments and knowledge about implementing it in the classroom.
 
     
     
 
Reflection
My second evidence meets AP #12 - Technology in different ways. First off, I discuss the reasons of why it is important and beneficial to use this program in the classroom for grading students’ work. This program is excellent because it manages many different types of data with ease and keeps everything organized according to your personal settings. I was familiar with the program, but I did not know much about it, so I inquired to my Cooperating Teacher, Mrs. Heres, to teach me how to use it. I have since become very familiar with incorporating the use of this technology into my daily teaching and grading. Not only does it help me enter grades quickly and easily, but at any instant I can print a progress report for each and every student at any point during the school year. My second evidence is also being currently used by me in my Level II internship classroom. The students are definitely benefited by my use of this technology program, even though they might not always realize it. This program enables me to keep very exact and up-to-date grades and scores for every student, and it does pretty much all the math for you. It can weigh the students’ scores, it can calculate any ‘curved’ grades, and it keeps class statistics and individual student statistics in every subject you enter into the database. These statistics are very beneficial for upcoming lesson planning because you can see where every student stands in the classroom, and you can see where some students may be struggling and need extra assistance. You can also see the students who are excelling in certain areas and use them to help the struggling students.
