A more personal goal for this course is to more actively engage as a member of the course community. The ISTE standards recognize the importance of educators also being a "learner". This includes active participation in global and local networks (ISTE, 2017). In other courses I have struggled with engagement in discussion forums because the value was not always apparent to me. Now that I am in the end stages of the M.E.T program, I think I would be remiss to not be as engaged as possible.<br />
I hope to leverage the expertise and experience of my educator peers in this course to help be more engaged and to understand where my first goal (to be a supporter) fits in today's context.
