This self assessment truly causes you to look at the areas that you are in need of improvement; or at the least needs attention. In order for these weaknesses to become a strength one must decide to seek out these areas and improve.
For Domain 1 competency 1 showed to be strong for me, overall. I think that I always act with integrity and fairness and try to show that in everything I do. The exception here would be policy and procedure; this is an area that I need to improve in. Knowledge of these areas is essential for me to promote fairness. I am mostly competent with competency 2. I have a good gauge on culture and how to monitor goals and objectives at the district level. While I pride myself in communication and collaboration for all, competency 3 reflected that I need more experience with cultural diversity. Number 4 went back to the policy and guidelines, which again showed to be a weakness for me and an area I need to improve in.
Beginning with competency 5, I proved to be weak to competent when it comes to curricula and the implementation and design of curriculum. Competency 6 in domain 2, I found I have a strength with motivation and techniques for classroom management. The weak area for this competency is with staffing and an understanding of instructional resources. Staff evaluation with competency 7 was also overall a competent area for me. I do need improvement when it comes to the design and implementation of adult learning techniques.
Domain 3 began with competency 8 and my weakest area. Not having much experience with budgeting, I really feel this is an area of weakness and cannot wait to improve. I thought of competency 9 as all areas working together. I proved to be weak to competent with this. I believe this is again due to lack of experience with certain areas. I know the more I gain in areas, the better this competency will be. Finally, with competency 10, I felt very strong here. I know that I am a leader and feel that I can relate to people to help them solve problems and work together.
Great job-Budget is an area of concern for me as well.
ReplyDeleteGood information in your reflection - you will enjoy budgets. I have been working with budgets for a few months now, and there is a lot to it. Good word of advice - try to do some budget forecasting, Joe Smith with www.texasisd.com does a great job teaching this.
