Welcome to my EDT Portfolio! =

My name is Melissa Dell and I am a Post Bach Secondary Education student at [|Metro State]in Denver Colorado. I am originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and received my undergraduate degree in Communications from [|Clarion University]. I moved out to Colorado a year after I graduated and have now been here for almost 5 years. I love to run, hike, camp, snowboard, travel and watch football. The backbone in my life is my friends and family who I enjoy spending time with whenever I can. I look forward to a career as an educator because I want to make a difference in the lives of young people. I want my students to gain knowledge in my classroom as well as learn respect for themselves and for their peers. My classroom will be a safe environment where students can overcome challenges and shine in their strengths. Students will work in groups and independently to research and come up with solutions regarding local and world issues. This portfolio is the beginning of my artifacts that I will create during EDT 3010 class this semester. It will show the knowledge I have gained in this class as well as my creative input regarding education.
