Keeping your word to yourself - no easy task
Thinking ahead to completing my annual learning plan, this is a great template. Steve Dembo has created a “personal contract” that he plans to follow. I find it interesting to articulate it in this manner. It seems like the one to whom we break our word the most often is ourselves.
I like how Steve has included personal time in his contract. I find that, too often, this type of exercise winds up being about giving ourselves over entirely to the job. We need to recognize that it is crucial to include time for ourselves in the whole planning process. It does not benefit us or our students if we are completely burned out. Recharging the batteries is a must.
