Ok so I know I haven't blogged in a while but I do have my good excuses. I've been teaching five days a week at a school filling in for a teacher on long-service leave. I've also been learning many new computer programs in my bid to help students with their assessment tasks and theory requirements. It has been a busy time.
Although I haven't been focussing on the role of the TL I have had a ring-side seat to some of the interactions that occur between a TL and teachers.
I have come to realise through my many casual days that although there are many jobs a TL has to undertake as part of their role there will be other roles that they will undertake depending on the school's needs. For example a TL may need to be excellent with computers and take on a technology co-ordinator role within the school. Or the TL may become the school Board of Studies expert ensuring compliance of teachers and students to curriculum requirements.
That's all for now
