When I took the initiative to start this incredible and arduous journey, I knew it would be an exciting experience and one of personal and professional growth. As I have mentioned before, at times, I have felt overwhelmed by the amount of information, but at the same time, It has taught me to use the tools learned during the courses taken. Now, with this master's at ADL, I have been immersed in beginning to create significant learning environments, considering my new culture of learning for my innovation plan that has challenged my way of thinking and has encouraged me to explore new approaches in teaching mathematics using the tool of gamification, identifying areas of improvement, to develop creative solutions to stay at the forefront during the teaching process. My innovation plan involves updating a traditional paradigm in teaching mathematics using the latest trends and technologies in pre-kindergarten children. This is necessary due to our changing and challenging world.

 

This digital learning will contribute to my learning manifesto reflection expressed ideas to take advantage of technologies to improve the accessibility, personalization, and effectiveness of the educational process, focusing on preparing students for a constantly changing digital environment. By doing so, I can ensure that my work remains relevant, efficient, and effective. It is essential to highlight that my reflections on learning have been constant, without exaggeration, for almost 24 hours throughout this quarter, understanding that learning is an ongoing process and that there are always possibilities to improve and grow. Every obstacle and challenge I have faced has given me an invaluable opportunity to think and learn, strengthening my confidence and determination to face future challenges. This experience has been enjoyable; it has led me to reflect deeply on the growth mindset plan reflection, how I needed to change my way of thinking, how I should face situations of adversity, and how it can impact my personal and professional development.

 

Although I have always been very optimistic and persistent, I have discovered that adopting a growth mindset means being open to change and being willing to learn from challenges and failures, which I am applying in all aspects of my life. Reflecting on all the experiences and situations has taught me adaptability, the value of resilience, and continuous learning. An example of a significant change I have experienced these days has been in updating my e-portfolio, accepting the challenge of modifying it and creating new sections, learning from mistakes through feedback, and seeing failures as chances for progress and perseverance in my goals. This involved reviewing and reforming my previous work to ensure it is coherent and accessible, reflects my current skills and knowledge, and shows my growth and development.

​

Another relevant element that has been present and active during my ADL has been Engagement in my learning communities; this has allowed me to not feel so alone along the way. Participating in learning communities has helped me grow both personally and professionally. We have also given each other great support through laughter and tears. Interacting with my classmates, sharing ideas, and collaborating on developing their e-portfolios has broadened my perspective and enriched my educational experience. In fact, my relationships with people with similar interests and passions have allowed me to challenge my assumptions and gain valuable insights. Through these interactions, I have realized that learning is a collaborative process that requires active listening, empathy, and a willingness to learn from others. After everything mentioned above, I continue the ADL journey with the best attitude and willingness to face any situation. I am adaptable, resilient, and committed to continuous learning and growth, incorporating these elements into my personal and professional life, allowing me to impact the educational world as I move forward significantly.
