Dear TIME 2000 Students, Are you looking for work you can do from home? As part of the NYS COVID-19 Contact Tracer Initiative<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001wU0itLqPh6jPE4YRZi1tuhSnqpoR-ztG8mDVi9r_NKdj…>, the State is most urgently seeking to hire people to help trace REMOTELY. See below or check your QC email for further details. Good luck if you apply! Mrs. Weinman From: Interim President William Tramontano/Queens College > Subject: Volunteers Needed; Opportunity for Your Students Having trouble viewing this email? Click here <http://campaign.r20.constantcontact.com/render?m=1103033957415&ca=277be01e-…> [QC Banner] From Interim President William Tramontano: An email was sent to students on Sunday informing them about employment opportunities with the NYS COVID-19 Contract Tracer Initiative. The initiative is now recruiting 6,400 to 17,000 tracers to work as Contact Tracers<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001wU0itLqPh6jPE4YRZi1tuhSnqpoR-ztG8mDVi9r_NKdj…>, Team Supervisors<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001wU0itLqPh6jPE4YRZi1tuhSnqpoR-ztG8mDVi9r_NKdj…>, and Community Support Specialists<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001wU0itLqPh6jPE4YRZi1tuhSnqpoR-ztG8mDVi9r_NKdj…>. Queens College students from any discipline may be eligible for the Contact Tracer position (which is a minimum of 20 hours/week), while health and human services students may meet the qualifications for the Supervisor or Support Specialist roles. See Sunday's email to students<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001wU0itLqPh6jPE4YRZi1tuhSnqpoR-ztG8mDVi9r_NKdj…>. If you know any students who are seeking employment, I urge you to share this information with them. CUNY has indicated that salary will be determined based on the candidate's qualifications. Students should be aware that the job will be done from home and that all contact is virtual. In this very difficult job market, this opportunity could be a lifeline for some of our students. I want to thank you for your continued dedication to your students and to Queens College. Stay safe and be well.

[Time2000_t20 0211] Re: Student Teaching Placement Info ANOTHER NEW SCHOOL
by Naomi Weinman 05 May '20

05 May '20

Dear Future Math Methods Students, I continue to hope that you are all well. Another school is now available to add to your choice list for student teaching placement. The school is H. Frank Carey in the Sewanhaka School District. The placement is with a math special ed teacher so this would be a good placement if you are considering getting certified in special ed at a later time or if you just want to learn more about differentiated instruction. However, the teacher's schedule for next school year is not yet known so I do not know if this will be a middle school or high school placement. Given this situation, the placement is currently open to all methods students and as soon as the teacher has her schedule for next year, I will be able to place the appropriate candidate. If you would like to add this school to your request list, please reply to this email with your name and what choice number (#1-5) the school should be on your list. Sincerely, Mrs. Weinman Subject: RE: Student Teaching Placement Info NEW SCHOOLS Dear Future Math Methods Students, I continue to hope that you are all well. Thank you for submitting the placement request forms. If I did not receive your form, I have emailed you; if you did not receive such an email, rest assured that your requests have been received.

If you would like to add the schools to your request list, please reply to this email with * Your name and email address * The name of the school and what choice number (#1-5) it should be on your list.

This school has grades 6-12 so can be requested for BOTH MS AND HS placements. Sincerely, Mrs. Weinman From: Naomi Weinman Sent: Wednesday, April 15, 2020 1:59 PM Subject: Student Teaching Placement Info Dear Future Math Methods Students, I hope you and your families are well and able to stay safe. Given the many disruptions caused by the coronavirus, you may be wondering about your student teaching placements for next year. Instructions follow below but are a little different this year. In the past, schools were surveyed first, committed to student teacher placements, and then included on the list of choices for you. This year, you are being surveyed before the schools are asked to take student teachers because the schools are overwhelmed with changes right now and because they do not yet know what next school year will bring. After I receive your placement requests, I will reach out to the schools. The list of schools is based on the schools that agreed to host student teachers for the current semester. This coming fall semester, you will complete your observations for the methods course at the schools where you will student teach during the spring semester. I will arrange your placements based on your answers to the questionnaire found at Student Teaching Placement Form for Spr2021<https://forms.gle/9me5GiEYi4mudWzH7>. Please complete the questionnaire by April 28, 2020, to avoid delay in your placement. Replies submitted after that date will be processed in the order they are received. NOTE: Observations for the Methods course are separate from and, most likely, at a different school than the observations you will do for ICE. You will receive your placement information after the start of the fall semester. I will be in contact between now and then if more information is needed from you or if other schools become available; please be sure to check your email and reply in a timely manner.

[Time2000_t20 0210] TIME 2000 Portfolio Assignment
by Naomi Weinman 04 May '20

04 May '20

Dear TIME 2000 Students, We hope you and your loved ones are all well. We know that many of you have suffered a great deal during this pandemic that hit us in the beginning of March 2020. Due to that reason, we did not want to give you a very demanding portfolio assignment, but rather substitute it with a document you can write and keep forever that records this historic time in your life. Clearly, among other things, this abrupt change to online instruction and learning has affected both your professors and you. Your professors have had to quickly adapt to online platforms they might have been totally unfamiliar with before that might not have even been aligned with their original course objectives. You, as students, have had to adapt to the many different platforms used by your different professors and try to incorporate learning strategies you have never used before. The main purpose of this "portfolio" is for you to document how your developing knowledge and beliefs about mathematics, students, and teaching and learning and your goals for instruction have been influenced by this most unusual year in TIME 2000. You will do this by answering the assigned questions to the best of your ability. The assignment with grading rubric is posted on the TIME 2000 Google Classroom page. All work should be uploaded to Classroom. The due date is June 12, 2020. We hope that writing this will be a positive reflective experience for you and we eagerly look forward to reading what you have to say. Alice F. Artzt Professor of Mathematics Education Co-Director of Undergraduate and Graduate Secondary Mathematics Education Director of TIME 2000: A Math Teaching Scholarship Program Department of Secondary Education and Youth Services Powdermaker Hall, Room 150E Queens College of the City University of New York 65-30 Kissena Boulevard Flushing, NY 11367-1597 Office phone: 718.997.5169 Office fax: 718.997.5154

Dear TIME 2000 Students, Thank you to those of you who replied to the online course survey. Attached please find an excel file with the recommendations that were collected. I hope this is helpful to you as you register for online courses.

Several of you have asked about summer courses. Once QC announced that the summer classes will be taught remotely, some students told me that they do not want to take summer classes. Today, one of the seniors suggested that you consider taking summer courses so that you do not fall behind on the required courses and to avoid having to take 6 classes one (or even two) semesters, something that is never recommended. With this in mind, I thought it would be a good idea for you to share your experiences taking online courses at QC. I will then share the recommendations, both positive and negative, for you to have as more classes might transition to online only options in the future. The recent alumni are included for their recommendations, as well. Please complete the online course survey as soon as possible and by the end of this week. Click here: Online Course Recommendations<https://forms.gle/2ScCAhmybQZ6dDnz9> Thank you. We will all get farther together!
