Reflection
Last week's class had an activity called "Technology across the Curriculum."
This was the first part of the evening. My partner and I worked as quickly as possible and I did not feel that we were able to achieve the wanted results in the time span given. It was significant because two people have a lot of ideas to give to one another.
The most significant part of the evening occurred quite by chance and it was about a law suit on transition goals. I found how important it is to use the correct language in goals. For example using the words plan instead of will.
I discussed this litigation with my director of special education and was assured that our goals are written correctly. I learned a great deal about language.
