Reflections
This standard emphasizes the importance of teacher professional development. Teachers must constantly improve themselves by learning and master new professional knowledge, professional ability, and constantly learn the trend in this field and related fields in order to improve their teaching ability. Education will not stop developing, and learning is a lifetime effort. Teachers should use the time of their whole career as life-long learning. This standard also emphasizes that teachers should have educational leadership. The teachers should be able to take a role in decision making about the development of instructional technology on campus.
The Literature review is talk about E-learning. In the previous studies, researchers focused on studying the effectiveness of e-learning or the level of e-learning in various industries, such as education, cooperation training. As E-learning is becoming a powerful and equitable substitute for traditional face-to-face learning, the need for an E-learning educational system mechanisms is necessary for facilitating instructor’s assessment of student understanding and engagement. The needs assessment is talk about canvas faculty training. Canvas is an effective online learning management system. Most instructors and professors in the institution use Canvas to create and manage their course. I demonstrated how to better use the online learning management system through the needs assessment of Canvas training. The last artifact introduces a IT Plan. The entire report detailed demonstrated how I will plan to take the training implementation plan for the online learning management system at the school -Linyi experimental School I have worked before.
