Other Ways of Teaching

My name is JT Thompson.  I am an assistant baseball coach at Union College.  I have been coaching at multiple schools in different parts of the country.  During the one year I did not coach, I substitute taught at multiple school districts. One was a rural school, while the other was more urban. I was able to see multiple ways students were taught and how technology changes as you teach at different schools.  Technology has also expanded while teaching a sport.  I consider coaching to be another way of teaching.  We must adapt to the players and how they learn.  We have used video much more in the past year to try and get our concepts into the hands of players in a way they understand.  I look forward to learning other ways during this class.
