Date Taken	Course Number	Course Name	Instructors	Course Overview
Fall 2019	TE 802	Reflections and Inquiry in Teaching I	Dr. Avner Segall & Peter Nelson & Kyle Chong	This course was taken simultaneously with my student teaching internship. It both helped prepare me for the History and Government classes I taught during student teaching as well as used my student teaching experiences as catalysts to thinking critically about the practice of social studies teaching.
Spring 2020	TE 803	Professional Roles & Teaching Practice II	Justin Detmers	From this course I have a firmer understanding of the difference between equality and equity, how to prevent teacher burnout and how to reflect on my practice as a teacher and how it interconnects with students. I was in this course when the pandemic started and I was grateful for how the professor navigated it. Not only did he shift the course online with ease but he also sent us drawings his children had made for each of us in the mail.
Spring 2020	TE 804	Reflections and Inquiry in Teaching II	Dr. Avner Segall & Peter Nelson & Kyle Chong	TE 804 was a continuation the following semester of TE 802. In this course we continued to explore six important understandings to Social Studies education: Social Studies education as a form of questioning Teachers and students create the curriculum Teachers value the cultural, social & intellectual funds students bring to school Social Studies is an interdisciplinary and connects students to the world around them Teachers and students are citizens Teaching is a learning profession This course also used my student teaching experiences as catalysts to thinking critically about the practice of social studies teaching. It was during this course I was nominated by Dr. Avner Segall for the Intern of the Year award.
Summer 2022	CEP 810 & CEP 811 & CEP 812	Teaching for Understanding with Technology & Adapting Innovative Technologies to Education & Applying Educational Technology to Issues of Practice	Dr. Liz Bolt & Dr. Chris Sloan	Through these courses I developed my discernment as an educator regarding when and how to integrate what technology to best support my students. This is where I was first introduced to the concept of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) that continues to guide my discussion making as I craft units and lessons. During these courses, I worked on a research project, crafted creative lessons and grappled with difficult educational issues. My students' favorite lesson from last year was a lesson I crafted initially for this course that incorporated my TPACK. I took these courses together as part of a summer cohort in Galway, Ireland.
Summer 2023	CEP 800	Psychology of Learning in School and Other Settings	Ron Houtman & Kyle Shack	Learning is a journey. In this course I was reminded of theories of learning I had first encountered in AP Psychology in high school. From there I learned about the difference between knowledge and understanding as well as novice and expert. What was most valuable to me was learning about barriers some students have to learning as well as the ways in which adult learning differs from that of a child or adolescent. I crafted my own theory of learning based on my experiences and what I had learned in the course. I took this course online remotely.
Summer 2023	CEP 807	Capstone Seminar	Dr. Matthew Koehler & Megan Harris	I reflected on and synthesized my MAET work by creating an online portfolio (this website) through this course. I revisited my goals entering the MAET program and created new ones as I look ahead beyond the program. This capstone course supported me in reflecting on all that I had learned through the courses and experiences of MAET. I took this course online remotely.
Summer 2023	CEP 813	Electronic Assessment for Teaching and Learning	Dr. Brittany Dillman	Assessments are more than just tests. Through this course I learned the problematic history of assessments as well as the more promising present and future. I got the opportunity to craft assessments to best tap into where my students are at using some creative constraints. I throughly enjoyed broadening my understanding of what is possible in the realm of assessing students. I took this course online remotely.
Summer 2023	CEP 822	Approaches to Educational Research	Dr. David Wong	Through this course I became both a better consumer and producer of educational research. Through a research project about misconception in educational technology, I had the opportunity to both describe the issue, design research to further study it and then share that research out. I grew as both a researcher and as someone who consumes research and works to apply it to my teaching practice. I took this course online remotely.
