Personal+Learning+Goal

=Personal Learning Goal= Goal based on NETS*T standard 2a: "Teachers design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity."

My goal is to create a project for my students in which they will work collaboratively to create an interpretive "essay" of Cormac McCarthy's //The Road// using PowerPoint.
 * Goal**

The following are activities by which I will develop the necessary skills and knowledge to achieve my goal:
 * Action Plan**
 * 1) I will establish a connection with another teacher in the Sevier County school system that has previously taught //The Road//.
 * 2) I will seek out other English teachers, both in Sevier County and Knox County (the system in which I was educated), and discuss group projects using PowerPoint that they have assigned.
 * 3) I will create paper copies of guidelines for the project, including blank PowerPoint outlines (students will use these to create a rough draft before translating their "essay" into digital form) and instructions for how to use PowerPoint.
