Commitment to Content Knowledge and Scholarship

My commitment to content knowledge is shown through a variety of academic

achievements, including a GPA of 3.6 cumulative, with a 3.1 in my content area, and the score of
a 192 in the mathematics section, passing with 42 points above the required passing score. I am
also a board member on the HonorSociety.Org organization and the Gamma Bette Phi
Organization at WVSU. These achievements, plus my quality recommendations from my from
my four-semester math instructor at WVSU, show my commitment to my content knowledge.

I have attached an artifact to this section of my ePortfolio that shows my content to

knowledge and commitment, even at the beginning of my teaching career. This is a lesson plan I
wrote for my Education 316: Integrated Methods class. This was my first lesson even, and even
in this lesson I addressed State and National Standards and created objectives around them.
These objectives allowed me to teach to my students in a way they understood, and they were
able to tell me what they were learning and why they were learning it.
