[quote=Anonymous]As a teacher with experience in public and private schools in 3 states and overseas,  I can clearly say that certain principals have a strong preference for young graduates who can come up with specific looking lessons. These teachers spend the majority of their time making lessons look “techie” and pretty to wow principals who frankly don’t care about the delivery of the lesson. Even during distant learning, I was recording myself teaching on a white board at home, going over older concepts and teaching new concepts in a differentiated manner. These lessons were being played during Zoom sessions and being posted online. What did  my principal say? She wanted them to be posted on “modules” instead of “pages” and  that my homepage would look prettier if I used “bitmojis”, the way the younger teachers were doing to make their homepage more aesthetically pleasing. When I told her I was using the announcement tabs for the weekly announcements and the discussions tab for interactions, she practically told me I needed to do what the straight out of college kids were doing. There was no mentions about the quality of my lessons or the delivery of instruction. So please don’t blame the teachers without knowing what goes on behind the scenes. [/quote]
