Today the word is finally official. Effective February 1, I’m the new (never-before-seen) Director of Teaching and Learning with Technology at BMCC. I’ve been a Coordinator before, and a Deputy, and even a Chief, but never a Director. It’s rather a grand-sounding title, and it translates, practically, into a single office, all to myself, with a window, lots and lots more responsibility, lots and lots and lots more work, and absolutely no more money. It’s my chance to take a swing at planning, policy, and coordination for TLT at the college, and it’s a swing I’ve been longing to take for quite some time. It does also mean (at least for a while) that I’ll be out of the classroom. And I have to admit I’m ambivalent about that. Still, it’s a positive step, overall. And I’m glad to take it.
I think I need new business cards, for sure…and maybe a logo! 😉
Congratulation! “Director” I have to tell you the truth that you are a very nice professor. I like the way you teach and the sense of humor. A lots of my friends expect to take your class.
Thanks, Yu Hui! I’m glad to see you’re looking at the blog. Tell your friends that I’ll still be doing my best to help them–in another office!
I’m very proud of you honey.
