4. What are the qualities of a professional teacher?

I feel that integrity is an important characteristic for a professional teacher to have. Integrity is the quality of
honesty and having strong moral principles and so it is necessary for the teacher to have these so that the
students can be educated to act in the same way. Students should see their teachers as a figure to look up to
and so integrity allows teachers to be a role model for their students.

Knowing your own strengths and weaknesses, draw a professional development road map. Make this activity an
illustration of your personal journey, and how you view yourself 6 years from now.

Here’s what’s required on the road map:

 The first stop on the road map should be your entry to public school system; you can decide how the map
“ends” in 10 years from now.
 There should be five other “stops” on the map, representing different key concepts that could help or hamper
your journey in achieving professional development. They may be experiences that you have or have yet to
experience.
 Record three major future events that you hope will happen on your road map. Indicate on your map your age
when you want these things to happen. (Possible examples- graduating from graduate school, getting
promoted, implemented innovations, and improved teacher development stage etc.)
 The map should have small illustrations of each event—this can be a symbol, picture, magazine cut-out, clip
art, etc.
 The map should be in color! How you decorate and map out your professional growth journey is up to you.
