Project 10 - Interview with Mrs. Lindsey

The teacher I chose to interview for my project was Mrs. JulieAnna Lindsey, a 7th grade English and Language Arts teacher at Grand Bay Middle School. The educator I chose as my inspriation for this interview was Marc Prensky because I watched several of his videos when he was my C4T a few months ago. In his video What is the role of the teacher in today's world?, he discusses the importance of incorporating creative projects into the classroom and how to enhance the creative ability of our students. I loved this video when I watched it the first time and I still do! In the beginning of the semester, I did some observation hours for another course with Mrs. Lindsey and I immediately knew I loved her teaching style. She is a great blend of fun, when it's appropriate, but serious when it comes to learning. I have known Mrs. Lindsey for a number of years through church and family friends, but she is also doing all of the decor for my upcoming wedding! This teacher holds a special place in my heart and I was so honored to interview her. I wish there hadn't been a time restraint on this project because I ended up with about ten minutes of footage, but I had to cut some questions out because of time. Also, I was NOT texting or anything during this interview-I had all the questions pulled up on my phone to serve as a reminder while I was talking.
