An+Introduction+to+Teacher+Development

[]

This video discuss the importance of teacher development. Good teacher development includes integrating theory and practical experience, having a strong mentor and ongoing support, and focuses on self-assessment and reflection. I think that these elements are key in the success of new educators because during the first few years new teachers need a lot of guidance and feedback.

The video also discusses some of the characteristics of good teachers. Some of the mentioned characteristics that resonated with me were that good educators keep up with learning. I think that it is important that teachers continue to learn so that that can share their love of learning with the students. I also agree that the best teachers have deep content knowledge because it allows them to do things in the classroom that a teacher who has trouble with content may struggle with.
