I think that the way we interact with the students is the most
important thing that needs to be evaluated this semester. I have taught a
lesson and it went rather well although I did have some hiccups. I believe that
punctuality is a very important thing, because when you get a job as a teacher
your expected to show up on time. However, the dress code for practicum should
be a little more relaxed. The reason I say this is because, when I shadow
teachers they are wearing jeans loose fitting tops and t-shirts while practicum
students are adhering to a very rigid and strict dress code. It seems like a
double standard. Now, I’m not saying we all should walk around in our pajamas or
in very revealing clothing but I think we need to lighten up a bit on the dress
code. Maybe have a casual Thursdays where we can wear dress shorts or something
more comfortable other than khaki pants and polo’s. But I know for ladies it’s
much harder to wear something more comfortable without it being revealing. Now,
I’m not saying that to be a sexist it’s just a fact of life. These are my
personal feelings about the dress code.
