Salary Schedule

I have fallen a little behind in my reflections. Now I will go back to capture a few thoughts in individual entries.
I really enjoyed the discussion on some of the semantics involving the world of teaching. Up to this point, my desire to teach and understanding of teaching, revolved around the yearning to make a difference. While this is a worthy motivation, it is necessary to understand all aspects of the realm of teaching so as to be prepared to become the best possible educator I can.
One thing that particularly interested me was the discussion on salary schedules. I am not as focus on amounts, but more so on how to increase my worth. I now understand the importance of furthering my education and it's implications on negotiability with contracts.
