Helping you pass, so you can move onto helping our future.
So my first time taking this exam, it was pretty painful. This second time around, it was like a whole new test. I took it yesterday, I have to wait until Tuesday evening to find out if I passed it. I need to pass this exam because I will be starting to teach AP Computer … Continue reading Taking The Technology Applications Exam 242 – For The Second Time
So I’m not a computer animator, but I’m assuming that’s what the state of Texas wants from the Tech Apps test takers. I guess since we get certified from EC-12, that’s a fair trade off, cause then we could work in any school, and not be limited to high school or middle school. Because I … Continue reading Technology Applications 242 Exam – Domain 6
So I didn’t do so well my first try around. I should have purchased a study guide and spent more time on topics that I don’t know well. Long story short, I missed a passing score by 15 points. Not to happy about it, but I kind of know what to expect now. Takeaway from … Continue reading Tech Apps Exam 242(Part 3)
So I’m looking online for more resources on the new Tech Apps exam, and can’t find anything. I find an outdated website with previous exam information(VHS! What!?!). But fortunately I’ve found some info in Quizlet. Here is a link to the main note cards I’ve been using. Mrs.Sweek, check her work out(by clicking on her … Continue reading Tech Apps Exam 242(Part 2)

Apply for your certificate. This is done through the TEA website. Once you’ve completed everything, TT will send your info to the … Continue reading I’ve Finished My Checklist, Now What?
Seriously beyond happy right now! Just got my results back today, 4 business days later, and I passed with a score of 272. I needed to get a 240 to pass. I’m super happy right now. How did I do it(besides preying really hard)? I took my time. I took the test like I had all … Continue reading I Passed My PPR Exam!
So, it was by far the most unique test I have ever taken. It took me 3 hours to take(only have had to do that once in my life), I took a 10 minute break(you’re allowed one), and I was checked so many times to see if I was cheating. I got fingerprinted a dozen … Continue reading Just Took The PPR Exam
First off, let me tell you how many friends and family are so “jelly” right now(my kids have me talking like them). I get the occasional; “So what are you doing with your life, now that you have off for 2 and a half months?”, I hear the envy in their voices. My best friend … Continue reading Do Teachers Get Paid In The Summer?
