Executive Board Member-At-Large (2015-2017)
I've been a board member since 2015. NACCTEP has dramatically deepened my passion for teacher education preparation at the community college level. NACCTEP is a great organization that keeps educators informed of federal legislation, advocates for educators' needs, and cultivates collaboration across the nation. I truly enjoy learning about other teacher education programs from other states. I have brought home with me from NACCTEP conferences and board meetings the importance of incorporating STEM education in our department, civic engagement within the teacher preparation, and advocating for stronger articulation agreements with the 4-year institutions. The latter has strengthen my desire to create a Texas state organization that bolsters other teacher education pathways at the community college level. Lone Star College is in the midst of bringing a Texas state chapter of NACCTEP so that we all could learn from each program across Texas and advocate for stronger partnerships in order to meet our teacher shortages across our great state. |
