Start by reviewing the first two chapters of your required textbook, Managing Skills for Teachers by Swerdlow from Module 1's Course Resources. Adding this practical book to your library can help you identify your areas of growth and strategies to achieve that growth. It has sound teaching and management principles, though the content is sometimes a bit dated. Based on your knowledge, complete the table by considering your comfort level with each objective. Select your skill level for every line in each management category of Planning, Organizing, Commanding/Leading, Controlling, and Coordinating. For example, if you feel you're at the expert level of 2.1 "using strategic planning techniques to articulate educational goals, to specify appropriate learning objectives, and to develop instructional strategies", you would give yourself a score of 3. If you feel that it is a growth edge where you want to learn more and get better, you'd give yourself a 1. Make this self-assessment on every line and complete the reflective questions below the data table. If you're new to teaching, give your best guess on your current skill level from other work, school, or life experiences
