My name is Kailey and I am an aspiring teacher currently studying at Lakehead University. I have achieved my Honours Bachelors of Arts and Science Degree and am in the process of obtaining my Bachelors of Education.
Being a teacher has always been my dream! I love to help and support children, and watching them grow as they learn year by year, developing into a grown human being. It is so rewarding to know that you were a part of the process helping these children learn and become they person they are. It is because of that, that I am so excited to finally have a class of my own and to make a difference in the lives of these children. Through the use of media literacy, I will be able to help advance these children and prepare them for the world in which we live in. Although, many of these students have a lot to each the older generations about technology! Media is everywhere we look; billboards, TV commercials etc. all through the use of technology. Technology has advanced today's classroom, customizing certain activities (through the use of Apps and online games) by allowing students to use tools such as iPads, iPods, tablets and so on.
Understanding the benefits of media literacy will help to better me as a future teacher, because I will be able to take that knowledge to the classroom, adhering to the learning styles of all of my students!
