ESSAY COMPETITION
2012 Writing Prompt: The topic for the 2012 Essay Competition focuses on the future of education and what tomorrow’s teachers must be ready for when they enter their first classrooms.
Start by reading “Preparing Tomorrow’s Teachers Today” by Melissa A. Rasberry from the August/September issue of Go Teach,” the official FEA magazine, and then seek out some other resources on this topic to further your understanding.
The author encourages future educators to imagine their role in the future of teaching and learning and to start preparing to realize that vision. On page 21, she lists six ideas to help you plan for working in the schools of tomorrow:
- Prepare for a transformed learning ecology.
- Build your own personal learning networks.
- Work with students in diverse settings.
- Pursue leadership opportunities.
- Pay attention to exciting developments in multiple fields.
- Exercise your creativity.
In essay format, select two or three of the six ideas and describe what you will do now, as a future educator, to become an effective teacher of tomorrow.
