Characteristic 1 is: "We believe that the novice teacher should have a commitment to skills for life-long learning." One artifact I think could be included in my portfolio to represent this characteristic is information I receive from WVCTM. In my C&I 434 class, we were required to join a professional organization. By joining a professional organization, you can acquire new information and methods that can be used in the classroom. Times are always changing, so it is important for teachers to keep up.
Characteristic 4 is: "We believe the novice teacher should be a facilitator of all learning for students." An artifact that can represent this characteristic could be the UDL lesson plan created in SPED360. This lesson plan required the novice teachers to differentiate their lesson so ALL students would be able to learn the material. Each student is different, so it is important to make learning successful for all students.
I think both of these artifacts sound like good ideas for these two characteristics. I am glad they are asking us to think of these things now!
