Picked for Discussion

Today I was to be at the college at 4:00 for a panel discussion, more or less and interview with persons from NCATE( National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education) who are grading the Education sections of Walsh University. I was selected along with 9 other persons to be apart of this process. So things went very well and we all must have answered the questions the way that they wanted because they told us that they were impressed with our answers and they got what the wanted and heard what they wanted from the group in a matter of 45 minutes. Our part was to take about an hour, so we did well and all ten of us felt good about it and ran over to tell the professors! They seemed very pleased and happy with what we told them. Needless to say I was horribly nervous because i did not know what questions were going to be mine and which ones were going to be whole group, but I did well and once we got started the nerves were gone. I have been through many interview before, but this one was a lot different and nerve wracking for me.

So the final grade will come to the college in April, but the college and professors will know pretty much how they scored by the end of Wednesday night at the dinner with then all. So till then....
