I have been a lifelong learner and have an extensive academic background and the knowledge of teaching history and social studies.

I have traveled extensively through military service with several

For the past eight years, I have taught sixth grade math, science, social studies, and language arts in a brick and mortar school. I have written curriculum to align with the new Common Core Standards for Mathematics and Next Generation Science Standards. I

I am Carla Sittig and have taught for 19 years. I began my teaching career in Louisiana where my husband and I are originally from. We moved to Texas in 1998 and in 2006, Hurricane Rita prompted us relocate to Raleigh, North Carolina. We have lived in New Bern since 2008. My experience includes elementary, middle school science, publications, video productions, and school level tech facilitator. I served as a media coordinator for the past three years until moving into the role as a Digital Teaching and Learning Coach for Craven County Schools. My husband and I have two children. Our oldest attends ECU with only three semesters left and our youngest is a senior in high school.

As an educator, Carolyn’s passion and determination stemmed from life experiences and was fueled by dedication to her family. Despite the hardship of having to drop out of school her junior year of high school to take on the resposibility of earning a living to support her family, Carolyn was persistent in obtaining an education. Through the GED program she was determined to receive her diploma while working two jobs as a teeneager. After the birth of her first child, she knew that she needed to further her education to become a role model for her daughter. The desire to provide a better life and become an inspiration is evident as she continued on receiving multiple degrees, all the while continuing to hold down a job, and reaching the zenith after obtaining her PhD in Educational Leadership.

of Bachelor of Science in 2004 at Delaware State University (Major: Psychology & Minor: English Education) and holds a dual Master’s of Science in Early Education/Students with disabilities at Mercy College in 2008 (Bronx, NY). Starting from the teaching assistant, she has with her sincerity and loving nature achieved many awards in teaching profession. Dean’s List, Teaching Ahead and so on awards are under her belt in her small, but effective, almost 11 years, work experience. Moreover, Teaching Assistant and NYS Teacher Certification are two other appreciations she has acquired. She has a natural aptitude in superior interpersonal and communication skills to foster meaningful, spirited and affectionate relationships with students, staff, and parents. Likewise, student motivation, technology integration, creative lesson planning, writing jobs and so on tasks are a piece of cake for her and students enjoy her appearance much.

I am an educator for over 10 years and want to return to academic study and undertake graduate studies in Educational Leadership at the University of Maryland, as part of the Prince Georges County Public School-University of Maryland STEM Leadership Program. The purpose of this program is to excel professionally and grow as an effective diversified educational leader.

Aspects Essential in Identifying the Appropriate Members for a Team and Ensuring the Team Is Successfully Launched

Though my academic career started later than most, I feel the life experiences I gained prior to becoming a teacher were extremely beneficial to understanding how the business world works outside of education. This has given me an ability to see things in a different light than most teachers who go directly into teaching at a young age. I graduated high school in 2000 and enrolled at Rock Valley Community College in Rockford, Illinois. During this time, I was a manager for a major electronics store. I learned a tough lesson about the ever-changing need for staff in retail and set my sights on becoming a teacher. I graduated with an Associates

With this ability I could now allocate my resources and factor in time and training to my overall plan. One important step in project planning is not only having the personnel on-hand, but understanding where everyone sits as far as training and what steps you as the project manager need to take to ensure everyone is trained up to begin working as a successful team toward the overall goal.

As I reflect on the skills and knowledge acquired previously, it became apparent that there was a gap in my existing knowledge. Developing a program plan for a retention program that would be based on the various components of program planning was a new endeavor; subsequently, the information provided in the textbooks made the task of understanding the program planning components comprehensible.

Soon after completing my bachelors I was offered a position as a permanent substitute at the same school. After covering several extended assignments within the Department of Education I realized I wanted to return to school obtain a masters in education. Every assignment I received was a learning experience but there was a group of students I felt needed more. Those assignments that inspired me the most would have to be the assignments which required me to cover special education classes. While teaching I enrolled in several classes with the CITE program

The success/failure of a project largely depends on the human resources used in that project. If the project team doesn’t have required skills then the quality of the product will be impacted. It is very important to hire the right people who can do the right things in the project. Just hiring a knowledgeable resource is not sufficient, but to make sure that the resource perfectly fits the team culture is also critically important. Person to be hired must possess the required knowledge and more importantly must be a good team player. This creates very positive and productive environment, where people work together to achieve a team goal.

A great Project Team that has the skills and experience with both specific and broad competencies related to the project.
