Three GJHS teachers were recently chosen as model teachers. Dr. William Brotz, Miss Robin Cummings, and Mr. Robert Heinrich were chosen from forty teachers who were nominated statewide. The three were recommended by the principal and then observed by the State Department of Education. The teachers were filmed by Learning Science Services in April of 2009 and the films will be used in an online masters-level education.
Mr. Heinrich was filmed demonstrating Power-Teaching. He taught an American History class which consisted of students who previously had him as a teacher. Dr. Brotz and Miss Cummings modeled Team-Teaching in their video during a Chemistry class. The videos were directed and produced by the Executive Director of Learning Science Services, Elaine Clawson.
"It was quite an honor to be selected as a model teacher." Heinrich said, "It was great to have a chance to show-off some of the great things we are doing here at GJHS."
