Rational

The following evidence is mentor feedback from practicums one, two, and three. All have indicated insufficient opportunity to engage with broader communities and teaching networls. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 there will be little opportunity to fulfil this. However, the blackboard website that Lesmurdie Senior High School uses does allow for collaboration with other schools. I have been shown by the Head of Department how the schools share resources with other communities through this website, and hope to make use of it when I am on my fourth practicum.

I have already discussed with my mentor teacher for practicum four that I have not had much opportunity to engage with wider school networks. My mentor teaching is going to do what she can to allow me to access the blackboard website so I can engage with colleagues in the wider community. Furthermore, I will do everything I can to learn how to best engage with teaching networks.

I should mention I do have connections with teachers from various schools and have been in communication with them. I have even shared resources I have made with teachers from schools I haven't attended, and they have shared some amazing resources with me. However, while on my practicums and due to COVID-19 I have had little opportunity to demonstrate this for my mentor teachers.
