Follow up to Session 2 - What are our Professional Expectations?

To address the Ticket Outs from Session 2:


  • What are we curious about?
    • Connecting with Advisor's throughout the country.
    • What will I record in AET? How does AET work?
      • It can really be anything! Maybe start with "hours studying!" We just want you to play with the program and get a feel for it so you can help future students (who will probably be asking the same question at first to themselves!)
      • Just start "Cruising" http://theaet.com/
      • I would highly recommend attending our first Thursday TeachAg! Technical Update Webinar on AET by John Hines (West Perry) and Neil Fellenbaum (Penn Manor) on Thursday, Sept 5th from 3:30-4:40. Just click on http://meeting.psu.edu/teachag
    • How the Theories Work/Connect/Everything! (including who is Bronfenbrenner!)
    • How am I going to create a POA?
      • Well, the lessons in session 9 (September 24th) and session 10 (September 26th) will help! Sometimes you just have to "start". Remember!! You are not creating a POA, you are creating a POA implementation plan!
    • All these Acronyms!!
      • Yes, sometimes it appears we have our own language! Please call me out whenever I use one you are not familiar with! No fear!
    • Will we be offered student membership in NAAE and PAAE in AEE 311?
      • Yes, go talk to Renee Miller in 207a, rgm13@psu.edu
    • Still curious about FFA...all new to me!
      • No worries. Just cruise your manual, handbook, and website and bring out questions in class!
    • SAE programs and Organizing Them
      • Session 16 (October 17th), Session 17 (October 22nd) and Session 18 (October 24th) will be awesome!
    • Weekly Wonders
      • What are you curious about? Please let us know! They are listed in your assignment handbook. They are on the Angel Lessons Page, and you can work as far as ahead as you wish!
    • How people think about what they are going to do through life?
      • Us too!
    • Foster's Blog
    • Do we need to bring our FFA Manual's to class every trip
      • Not required (unless specifically requested), but look at the syllabus and determine if YOU think they might be helpful that day!
    • If I will get my moodles done on time
      • of course you will! Just start!

      • Session 27 on December 3rd!
