As I began my journey through the Technology for Education and Training (TET) program, I had very little knowledge about the use of technology in general.  I certainly was even more limited in my knowledge of how to use technology to benefit the students in my classes.  My journey was one of baby steps.  I learned rather slowly and occasionally found myself frustrated.  However, I discovered that through hard work and perseverance, I truly could succeed.  I often relied on the guidance and advice of others.  I found it very valuable to be a member of a truly giving cohort group as well as having a very technologically gifted mentee through the PDC mentor program.  My family has also been extremely supportive and I always knew I could rely on the Lord to help carry me when the burden seemed too large to handle.

While I still have things to learn, I am now convinced that I CAN learn them.  In addition, I realized how important it is for all of us to be life-long learners.  I hope that, as you view my portfolio, you will be able to see the growth I have made both personally and professionally as I took my baby steps through the TET program.
