I see professional development as playing a large role in my future career as an educator. I want to always be learning new techniques and information that will be valuable instructing my students better. An important part of this will be keeping up with the new technology that is available both inside and outside the classroom. As this new technology becomes available it is important to know how to use it and how it can improve one’s ability to reach students. In addition to technology, the art world is also constantly changing and as an instructor it is important to keep up on what is happening. As for my own education, in the future I hope to pursue a master’s degree in art education and possibly even a PHD. I believe that it is important for a teacher to remain enthused about their subject and professional development is the key to achieving this goal.
