- A. Hello! I am Sarah Cline(Pryor-maiden name). I did my undergrad. at FSU and graduated in May 2011 (Elem Ed and Math 5-9). Within a month of graduating, I got married, moved to Lewisburg, WV (due to my husband's job), bought a house, and got my first teaching job (7th Grade Math- Summers Middle School- a 45 minute commute). My second year of teaching I lucked out and got a job 5 minutes from my house and will probably be in this position for a while:) (8th Grade Math - Eastern Greenbrier Middle School). I will be finished with my Master's at the end of the summer. Looking forward to this class and looking forward to having a Master's at the end of July!
- Other side info about me: I am a Zumba Instructor. I love the outdoors; hiking, kayaking, camping, skiing, etc. I will be very busy this summer teaching summer school 3 days a week, instructing zumba, taking vacation on my off weeks, and doing the outdoor activities I previously mentioned (minus the skiing, of course, but I already have my season pass for Snowshoe this winter!). I love teaching middle school math (Strange, I know, but would prefer it over kindergarten any day).
- B. I hope that this class enables to grow professionally.
- C. Watched the video :)
- D. Guilty of googling "information literacy" and finding this definition: "Information Literacy is the ability to identify what information is needed, understand how the information is organized, identify the best sources of information for a given need, locate those sources, evaluate the sources critically, and share that information. It is the knowledge of commonly used research techniques" (http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/info_literacy/). The video dealt with several of these areas: finding information, understanding the organization of information on the internet, locating information on the internet, and sharing information (i.e. this blogpost).
- E. I combined this with the above.
- F. Reviewed the tips - very helpful

Hi Sarah! I also love the outdoors. I'm so excited to start running and swimming outside instead of in a gym. Congrats on getting your Masters this summer!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on finishing up your Masters this summer - I'm happy for you! Happy for you, sad for me - This sounds silly, but I'm going to miss you!!! You've been in almost all my classes since I started in the Fall and I've always looked forward to reading what you posted for the week. Well, maybe I'll run into you at Snowshoe one of these days!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on almost being done! I know that has to be exciting! The way you love the outdoors and be adventurous have you done any caving? There are miles of caves in the Greenbrier Valley!
ReplyDeleteI have just been to both of the commercially run caves in Greenbrier county- Lost World and Organ. I haven't done the crawling on your hands and knees caving, but I would love to try some time!
DeleteI am jealous you are almost finished with your Master's! I just started last semester.
ReplyDeleteI am also guilty of googling a definition!
My gosh, you are busy. Must be because you are so young(lol) I google everything. I hope to be done with my Master's this winter. I love the outdoors too. Just bought a kayak and plan to 'boat' down the river this summer.
ReplyDeleteSarah, it's good to have you as a classmate again. I hope all is well. You are graduating a semester before me (not even a whole semester)! Congratulations on all your life changes!
ReplyDeleteNever feel guilty for Googling! It the most powerful information search tool in the world!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on completing your Masters this summer, me too!!! This is my last class toward my Master Degree. Of course we will never be completely done with school.
