Contructivism: Daunting is an Understatement
Coming out of my comfort zone: There is fear associated with learning something new and feeling out of touch or like I don't have a clue what is going on. I have been working on having a "Growth Mindset" with my class so know that I need to have a growth mindset and get past my nervousness, feeling of being unsure and not "educated" enough to collaborate in this course.
I need to learn how to ask for help, and as I say to my students "ask for help." I will persevere and do what I have to do to complete this course and the Teacher Librarian program. I need to change my thinking, stop procrastinating and embrace my fear of the unknown.
I need to be more social and less of a hermit, or a "lone wolf" as I have been described as.
I have to get past my personal fear of working and collaborating with others and do what needs to be done in order to learn.
So, I will forge on....get past my fears, (that I am admitting to my peers) and learn how to be a part of a community that collaborates and learns together.
I am asking for help in becoming a member of this learning community.
