Asst 1 is HOOKED UP!
Yesterday I officially got my Indiana Substitute Teacher's License. I'm pretty stoked about this experience once I get home to Indiana.
I'm wondering what the education system in Indiana looks like now that I'm coming back after 6 years, I actually wonder what K-12 education looks like in general. I think I'm looking at it through different eyes now. It's going to be really fascinating going from a huge liberal city by way of a fairly liberal college experience back to teaching in the Bible belt of the Midwest. However, I think it will be valuable as I'm going to a country that may put our definition of "conservative" to shame.
I've been really lucky to live somewhere that has be hyper plugged in to everything going on politically and in the media. As in LA where everyone is plugged in to Hollywood or NYC with fashion, DC is where it is for the political arena. I hope that, even though I'm only in Indiana for a short time, that I can really impart some knowledge to the kids I'll be working with. I don't want to influence anyone's opinion or change any minds - I would just like to spread the knowledge about life, the world outside the Hoosier bubble and how many cool and exciting things exist out there.
