Hello. My name is James Chen, and welcome to my B.Ed. Teacher Education ePortfolio.
In this weblog, you will find the content of my learning in the Teacher Education program at UBC. On the Teaching Standards page, you will see how I have applied my learning in the program to meet each of the professional standards of teaching outlined by British Columbia’s Ministry of Education.
Teachers today have a greater responsibility to prepare students to better adapt to an ever changing norm. Even though my role as a teacher may not have a tremendous impact on the society as a whole, I hope that my students will be able to gain the skills they need to make an impact in the society as they progress through the technology-integrated lessons that I love to design. When students leave my class I would like them to not only be able to achieve success in all the things they do, but to also challenge and improve upon their own selves through reflection and action.
Please feel free to leave me any comments or suggestions you might have towards my approach to education. Your feedback will be much appreciated.
