Specialization... Where now?


Over the past few months I have been thinking about the future.  As I am coming to the end of my Masters degree in Special Education, I have been thinking now what.  Through my professional and graduate work I have found my passion - Assistive Technology and Universal Design for Learning.  However where do I go from here?  Do I specialize more in these areas?  Do I pursue another master's degree?  Do I pursue a doctorate?  I'm not sure...  But one thing is for sure, I love working with kids and I never want to loose touch with the classroom!  I was once told that, "In education there are many people who are great at many things, but who are not experts in a field.  Stick with your passion and you will have an opportunity to be an expert."  I'm not sure if I want to become an "expert" but I do know I want to continue to learn and grow as an educator.  Therefore, I want to share an old video that was shot during my second year of teaching.  This class was and still is my inspiration for teaching with assistive technology!
