Learning from Blogging

"Too much energy is expended on implementing too many things, as opposed to narrowing our focus and getting to that transformative stage in our learning." This quote and the process of blogging will hopefully lead me in the direction of reflection and critical thinking. I feel as though we live in a world where we as teachers are told that we must know all the new teaching strategies. We need to be doing this and that, and then once we establish how to do one thing, that thing is now obsolete and we must learn something new. I think that blogging will help to gather, organize and focus on my abilities as a teacher and the steps and strides that I have made in my teaching career instead of focusing on the negatives.
