This week's web conference discussed several key aspects concerning the Educational Technology Leadership course work and the internship requirements. This program is an 18 month program covering 36 hours of course work. The outcome of the program will be eligibility to complete the state's technology certification exam and/or the TExES Principal Certification exam and a Masters of Educational Technology Leadership degree. The internship program will cover 33 Technology Facilitation standards from ISTE and 38 standards from the TExES Principal Certification program. The 18 months will be the culmination of 150 course embedded assignment hours and 150 field based hours. The final course will require a final assignment in which we will reflect on the program and courses taken and write a summative final report. I am looking forward to this challenge and know that upon completion I will be prepared for work in administration or continuing my teaching career in the Technology Applications classroom/lab. Even though I am really intimidated by the huge amount of work that is required, I am enthusiastic in my resolve to go into this program head on and make it work. I don't believe I completely understood what Ms. Borel was talking about when she said that the greatest challenge in this program will be time management. I am beginning to understand.
