Online Teaching Standard 9

Professional Commitment and Responsibility

Artifacts:  FERPA / Qualifications / Lifelong Learning

OVERVIEW:  Before becoming a teacher, I worked in a variety of jobs in the private sector, including more than 10 years in the legal field.  Consequently, confidentiality and privacy of information is part of my professional demeanor in my chosen field.  I maintain strict adherence to federal, state and local policies in my dealings with students, stakeholders and the public.

Idaho Digital Learning Academy (IDLA) mandates attendance at their annual summer conferences and a minimum of one professional development course during each school year.  Typically a combination of online and multiple face-to-face sessions that span one to three days, my attendance is recorded in our IDLA professional profile.  Currently attending Boise State University, I will graduate in 2014 with a Masters in Educational Technology.
