Introduction

Hi! :) I'm Vanessa Raney, a Master's of Arts student in Education/Adult Education and Training at University of Phoenix. Although I do not yet have formal experiences teaching, I completed additional training in preparation for college teaching.

For example, in Apr. 2004, I earned a certificate for the Preparing Future Faculty Professional Development Practicum from Claremont Graduate University (CGU). I also completed PFF 520 Course Design in Higher Education (CGU, Summer 2004) and ENG 519 Teaching College Writing (Southern Connecticut State University, Fall 2005).

Because I want to teach in the online environment, I felt it was important to understand more about the population that dominates it, which is adult learners. As I progress through my graduate program, I will gain additional insights and begin to develop teaching methodologies that will allow me to reach students at various levels and experiences.

Please check back regularly for updates and examples of my educational work product. Thank you.

:)
