Reflections from an (Almost) Teacher.

Lara/22/Australia
I'm completing my Bachelor of Education (Primary and Middle) with Honours, and this semester I'm required to keep up to date with reflections of my learning, understanding, and progress as I prepare for a research project, my final prac, and attempting to get a job.
These are my thoughts.

Intended Action: Spend time over the weekend brainstorming potential project topics to speak about on Monday

What Happened: Speaking with a friend on Thursday, and coming to understand the expectations of the internship, I was inspired to think outside of research in the classroom, and asked my boss at the school after-school care (same school I will be conducting my internship) whether I could possibly do my research in the context of OSHC, focusing on After-School care. We decided to both think about it and discuss it on Tuesday afternoon. 

Comments: I need to have my topic completely decided by Wednesday morning, before class, non-negotiable. I reflect that I struggle with deciding on topics and themes for projects, for fear that it won’t be the best or very most appropriate topic, or that something better will come along. I need to be decisive!
