This week I am in between jobs and I am taking a break in Key West Florida. It is a great chance to refocus and read. I left my job in one school district after eight years because my position as a Computer Teacher and Resource for other teachers was cut to half time this year. I have accepted a Library Media Specialist position at a local high school. Though I am sad about leaving my friends and colleagues at my prior position, I feel there is no challenge left for me there. This new position allows me the opportunity to rebuild the program and introduce new technology to students and teachers! I am very excited.
While at Providence Airport, I purchased a magazine I had never heard of before, Fast Company. It was very interesting. Its focus is on businesses using new technologies to better service consumers. There were also articles related to education and innovative thinking about how we need to rethink our teaching strategies in order to prepare students for their future. I liked it so much I have become a subscriber!
Vacation ends Saturday and my new career begins on Monday. I am looking forward to a new challenge.
