I posted these in different threads at different times so I figured I;d throw them both together in here because I didn't get much of a response. 1. What "categories" or section do you have included on your resume? for example, education, teaching experience, other experience, etc. 2. I am looking into joining some professional teacher organizations to keep myself well informed in the education field. I am already a member of the International Reading Association because i am pursuing my masters in reading. I am wondering if anyone had recommendations for an organizations you belong to and would recommend in terms of its usefulness to you. I was looking into these in particular: Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development International Society for technology in education I like that they provide journals focusing on education each month as well as other perks. Any other organizations you would suggest or thoughts about the two i posted? I feel that these would be things I would on my resume as well to show that I am staying current in the field.
The categories I have on my resume: Certification Education Teaching Experience I would love to add a "Technology Skills" section, but there's really no room...
i would like to add technology as well although i dont have nearly as much technology skills as some, I have to work on advancing those skills!
Mind you...I have a LOT of diverse (but relevant)experience..so I have a two page resume. The headings are: TEACHING INTERESTS (Sort of like objective) EDUCATION (With a subtitled area of: Literacy Courses of Interest) TEACHING EXPERIENCE SUBSTITUTE TEACHING RELATED EXPERIENCE ACTIVITIES AND HONORS PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIPS CONTINUED PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Ah. Yes, its on my resume under the Professional Memberships...and I am in these groups (all recommended by professors) International Reading Association (My state's) Reading Council National Science Teachers Association National Council for the Social Studies National Council of Teachers of Mathematics i find the two reading ones and the math one are the most helpful (GREAT websites and conferences) . The science is cool (the conferences are great). The social studies - though they have a fairly nice journal - it'll be the first to go.
The sections I have are: certification, education, teaching experience, other experience and technology skills.
I have it listed just like this: Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher and Outlook, PowerSchool and Boardmaker
