I would use this
sight if I needed guidance on a certain aspect in my teaching career. It’s nice
to have multiple resources to use for direction in my own classroom. This
website could help me learn more about my teaching because Mr. Meyer is a well
versed math teacher and all of his strategies and tools have been tested and
can work within a teacher’s own unique classroom setting. Taking what he’s done
in his classrooms and trying them in mine next could be very beneficial.
The most interesting aspect of this
resource would be one all of his categories to pick information about. It’s a
little overwhelming how much he provides to the public. I clicked on the
assessment tab and read a little down the page and noticed a neat type of
assessment I had never heard of. It was called Smarter, Balanced Assessment
Consortium’s. He stated it was used throughout California and was a better
method for grading student’s knowledge and skills. I would recommend this
source to a friend or fellow teacher because there is so much information and
categories to search through there must be something useful to everyone. Also
it helps as I mentioned above that he is a teacher and if he tried something
out already and says it’s great why not try it in your own classroom as well.
