By participating in the Administration and Supervision cohort, I hope to earn my second certificate through Johns Hopkins University and to complete a capstone class to bridge these two certificates into a Master's degree. I hope to learn about school law and to learn about what it takes to hold an administrative position in education. While I do not expect to leave the classroom for quite some time, I do hope that this program will adequately prepare me for being an effective leader for my school. I expect it to be a lot of work, but work that is worthwhile and functional.
One step that I will take in order to be successful in this program is to take advantage of the checklist feature in the ELC. I operate solely because of to-do lists, so I love that these checklists exist and I especially love that they turn gray once you complete each task. I have also subscribed to the email notifications, so I will stay up-to-date with posts and announcements on the ELC. I will also reserve time each week to work on assignments and do my best to stay ahead of schedule, so that I can avoid feeling rushed or overwhelmed by tasks. I also hope to take advantage of being a part of a team and to rely on my teammates for any questions I may have throughout the courses.
As of now, I feel very prepared to enter this cohort. I can't think of any other preparation that I need to be successful in the upcoming courses. I think that as long as each class is well organized and that the coursework is listed with clear expectations, I will be as successful in this cohort as I was in the technology integration certificate.
