Last chapter McDonald related how mastery is something that we try to attain as teachers. I think he is right but I related what I want to do as a teacher more to purpose than mastery. While trying to be good at teaching and trying to master the techniques I think I will find purpose in teaching. I feel like the students from the University of Rochester who have goals of purpose. I want to engage students in learning and help them understand how things work. I hope that when I reach sixty I feel like my life has had purpose. I do not want to feel like pink says the baby-boomers do when they think about if they did something that matters. As a future teacher I like to think that everyday we go to school we are making a difference in some small way.
