Empowering and advocating for your students to advance in their education is so important as a teacher. One of the teachers that showcased this to me was Dr. Salinas. She continuously leads her classroom with the goal of our advancement and change in education. In many of our assignments, she gave us the freedom to conduct research on the technology that we wanted to use in the classroom. She facilitated our advancement by aiding us with the different visions of learning we had.
