Competencies Reflection

I found the process of reviewing each competency in relation to my work over the past six months to be a valuable experience.  Research is clear that adult learning is maximized when time is provided for reflection, and in this fast-paced world of educational administration, sometimes we do not carve out the needed time for reflection on our practices.  Drafting a narrative about my work in each competency area provided me the opportunity to think about my work over the last six months.  Too often I leave work wondering what I really accomplished in that day.  It was affirming and rewarding to realize a lot of positive work has been done.
