Teaching

For pre-service teacher education, I believe building content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge should be intertwined (Shulman, 1986). Teachers’ pedagogical knowledge can only be situated in the teaching contents and without a deep understanding of the discipline, it will be challenging for a teacher to connect the core ideas of a discipline and design meaningful experiences for learners. Through taking IST courses about designing, developing, and evaluating instructions, I could gain both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience for my design of a course. I’m willing to continue to expand my knowledge of recent technologies and incorporate them in my class, which will help students discover recent learning technologies.
