@joseph_crossan @DrSigears So true, asking other people who have interviewed even if its a teacher there in their first year will give you a huge leg up in preparation.

@JessicaDiOrio1 @DrSigears Good luck!

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@JessicaDiOrio1 @DrSigears So it didn't happen? What school?

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears Yes, we did a project in one of my other classes where I had to comment on the status of religion in the educational situation. I used Google Scholar and the resources provided to us by the library here on campus. #AP5540

@DrSigears There could many times where you need to research how to reach an inclusion student in your classroom, and find strategies with which one can help them feel more at home and welcomed in the classroom without alienating them. #AP5540

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears They ask teachers this because they want to know if they plan on coming in and progressing and growing as a teacher. They wont hire someone who looks as if they are gonna just stay stagnant, that is not affordable in the current evolving atmosphere of edu. #AP5540

@JessicaDiOrio1 @DrSigears Did you really have an interview today? I hope it went well. Have you noticed the pace increasing or decreasing with the addition of tech? ##Edtech #AP5540

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears I feel like I did quite well, I think I could've prepared myself more and brought down my 'um' count but other than that there is never enough research that can be done about the school you are applying to. #AP5540

Cool article about how to prepare our kids for the future and moving away from the standard system of grading. #Education #Edtech #AP5540

@mrkempnz Best practice will probably differ from district to district as far as rules are concerned, but as far as usage in the classroom, students should be able to use their phones as a tool at any opportunity they have cause thats how it is going to be in real life. #Whatisschool

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@mrkempnz As we move forward in time the students we have will have online profiles that are just as important as the grades they are producing in class. It is important that we teach them how to protect themselves and their reputations online. #whatisschool

@MaeveOConnor22 I love your honesty, as teachers and people we must recognize the fact that everything we do isn't gonna work. Your willingness to pick yourself up and dust yourself off is inspiring. Keep up the good work. #Edchat

@DrSigears If I was to leave the education field I would most likely pursue a career in coaching Track & Field / Cross Country at the NCAA level. #AP5540

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears I am pursuing a masters currently, I am doing it because I want to hone my teaching skills. #AP5540

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears Its surprising to me that the urban areas have such higher salaries than the rural ones. Davidson County year one MA is 44,300 while Robertson is 37,032. #AP5540

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears I would prefer to run as my stress relief method #AP5540

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears New teachers quit because of a lack of support and the culture in which parents are always right. #AP5540

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@MayAlyse @DrSigears Lol I think the whole town may know

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@MayAlyse @DrSigears Lol yea my Track coach/ Geography teacher was hungover everyday, until he broke out the suspiciously flat Dr. Pepper around 5th period.

[Jacob Rainey @JacobPaulRainey]

@DrSigears Encouraging, Enlightening, Trustworthy #AP5540
