Background first, I have a BA in Communications, English and an MA in English. Taught college for 20ish years, now in my fourth year teaching HS. Got my certification through an alternative program.

I’ve considered Masters in Ed Leadership simply to get on as a curriculum principal. Otherwise, I have zero interest in the position. If I could somehow get a curriculum position with what I have now, I’d do a doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. My end goal is to influence curriculum choice at the state level

Great, thank you!

I have spoken to Grand Canyon University and since I have taken statistics in the past, I wouldn't have to take it for the Ed, but if I want the PhD, I'd have to take it. I rather get the Ed, but I'm still discerning. I'd like it to be in technology

I want a Ph.D. in Theatre. I want to teach theater at the college level. I doubt I'll ever get to it.

Several years ago, I stopped teaching Shakespeare plays line for line. Instead, I have the kids do a variety of activities to learn the plot, the characters, the history, the language, the literary devices. We watch the plays. We read and analyze the important quotes, soliloquies, monologues, and dialogues. How many teachers out there are teaching Shakespeare differently than the old standard: read an act, take a quiz? And how is that working? Are students more engaged? Best strategies?
