Jason Bennett's presentation goal is to explain the challenges of student teaching, how to communicate with his cooperating teacher and supervisor, and how to reflect on his teaching. Some challenges include time management, communicating with his teaching triad, and not stepping on toes in the cooperating teacher's classroom. He will reflect weekly with his university supervisor and develop classroom rules with his cooperating teacher. Reflective teaching involves self-observation and evaluation to understand what works and doesn't in lessons. Reflection tools include video recording lessons, keeping a diary, and getting feedback from peers and students.
