To address the Ticket Outs from Session 2:

• What are we curious about?
• Productive Reflection
• I would really love for you to check out this great example of a reflective teacher blogging: http://misscalculate.blogspot.com/. She is a math teacher, but how awesome would it be to have agriscience teachers and AEE majors from all over sharing great things like this? Obviously, she has been blogging since 2009, so it is very well developed. Scroll down to the labels and click on the First Year Teacher Label …very interesting.
