Title of Artifact: Philosophy Statement Standard: Standard: Standard Ten: Professional Development - Teachers shall participate as active, responsible members of the professional community, engaging in a wide range of reflective practices, pursuing opportunities to grow professionally and establishing collegial relationships to enhance the teaching and learning process. I am placing my Philosophy Statement under Standard Ten, Professional Development as evidence of continued mastery. This artifact was placed under standard ten because it continues to show from my educational autobiography how I am changing to become a better educator, and how I will still continue to grow individually as an educator as long as there is something to learn and become better at.
