How do you continue to educate yourself?
Instructional Coordinators need to always be on the look out for new research, advanced technology, best practices, and improved resources and programs. In order to best serve students and their families, an Instructional Coordinator must remain current and well read in popular topics and issues in education. Share a few publications that you subscribe to and/or any other resources that keep you up-to-date in the world of education, and share your commitment to be a lifelong learner.
"I always strive to improve. Even though I have my Master's, I'm not done learning. I keep up with the latest techniques on Educator Today, and I subscribe to a daily 'Tip of the Day' email for educators. I look for ways to apply these tips on a daily basis, and at the end of the day, I reflect and see what went well and what didn't. Then, I think of ways to improve and also to reinforce what I'm doing well."

I always strive to improve. Even though I have my doctorate, I am not done learning. I keep up with the latest techniques and research by reading research journals on ASCD.
