 To be clear and timely with all of my online lessons and assignments for my future students  Activities to implement in my own classroom  Professors providing Guided Notes---Second Chances Given  New perspectives on topics that I have taught previously  Higher standards for writing  How to participate in online learning  The students will gain a deeper knowledge of a variety of texts, including multiple genres, in order to gain a broader understanding of the periods and movements in literature.  Ability to relate to my students and the workload they are balancing  Analysis skills  Improved my writing  Marketing plan creation  Remembering the level at which a college asks you to perform, which is what we will be expecting the students to do in class if they are to receive college credit for the class  I have learned research and literary skills to pass on to my students.  It is important to be able to argue your point at the graduate level not just inform.  Depth in my own writing abilities How do you think that your current or anticipated graduate coursework will benefit your students?  I think that by having a deeper understanding of higher level mathematics I will be better able to design a rigorous curriculum that will help my students be better prepared for a college curriculum.  Wider awareness of work and different assignments and topics  I have been able to gather updated information related to my content area to stay abreast of the trends that exist.  It will enable students the opportunity to enroll in college credit plus courses at their high school. The students will be provided with quality instruction allowing them to achieve at higher levels preparing them for the work force or college entrance.  Increased knowledge of subject matter.  Immensely. The expansion I am receiving within English literature will help broaden my lesson planning and content I deliver to my students.  Many new ideas on teaching literary theory  I can give them a bigger picture to think about when talking about difficult subjects, and understand the interactions on a deeper level.  It is/will give me more in depth knowledge to make my teaching better and will allow us to offer more courses to students in our district who wish to gain college credit in a high school setting  Technology Driven--Meeting Deadlines---You determine your grade based on completing assigned assignments. You know before the class starts what the professor requires from you to complete coursework.  It will help me to teach mathematics even better. Lots of review and more topics are being covered that I was weak on and had forgotten.  The knowledge I've gained from the coursework will enhance my teaching.  I can offer college credit.  Some of the texts are appropriate to teach at the high school level. The writing skills presented in the beginning research class are invaluable to teaching Composition classes.  It will open up the areas of discussion immensely and allow me to teach higher level classes that aren't currently offered.  I have a gained a better understanding of how science curriculum builds from middle school into college and how some curriculum loops.  It will help with writing and analysis. Also I have been introduced to a wide variety of literature, which could help me give them a more varied reading list.  Additional opportunities to earn college credit while still in high school. I also have a better understanding of how they balance school and homework now.  I will impart the knowledge that I gain to my students.  I think my students will benefit from my updated knowledge of writing and research skills and the insights I have gained into world and American literature and authors.  I have learned so much about researching and writing from this program. I will definitely better prepare my students for college writing.  It's brought me up-to-date on research in the digital world. I'm also more comfortable with blended learning.
