Wins matter, but who my athletes become matters more. I want every athlete I coach to leave my team or program not only better at their sport, but more confident, more resilient, and more prepared for life. A lot of my philosophy comes from my experience as a Division I volleyball player. I’ve been through the highs and lows of a program, coaching changes, tough seasons, leadership...]]></description><link>https://bisho121.wixsite.com/juliabishop/post/coaching-philosophy</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69d6d8044424ffa457c2cc2d</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Apr 2026 22:36:33 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>bisho121</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Becoming the Coach I Needed: Integrating Skill Development and Athlete Well-Being ]]></title><description><![CDATA[When I first started my Master's in Education,  I thought I had a pretty good understanding of what it meant to be a coach. As a former student-athlete and someone who has been around volleyball for a majority of my life, I believed that being a good coach meant being knowledgeable about the game, running efficient practices, and pushing athletes to be their best. I valued hard work, discipline, and competitiveness, and I thought those were the main things that led to success on and off the...]]></description><link>https://bisho121.wixsite.com/juliabishop/post/becoming-the-coach-i-needed-integrating-skill-development-and-athlete-well-being</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c079db0160b7de31524da2</guid><pubDate>Sun, 22 Mar 2026 23:29:02 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>bisho121</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Graduate Transcript]]></title><description><![CDATA[CEP 818 – Creativity in Teaching &#38; Learning Semester:  Fall 2025 Professor:   A. Heintz This course focused on how creativity can be encouraged in teaching and learning environments. We explored different ways instructors can design lessons that allow students to think more openly, take risks, and solve problems in new ways. One of the biggest things I learned was that creativity is not just something people are born with but it can be developed through the right environment and teaching...]]></description><link>https://bisho121.wixsite.com/juliabishop/post/graduate-transcript</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69b7260dbae3e80016180530</guid><pubDate>Sun, 15 Mar 2026 21:44:19 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>bisho121</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing to Learn : What Comes Next]]></title><description><![CDATA[Module 7 : Future Learning Goals One of the biggest things I have realized during my master’s program is that learning never really stops. If anything, this program has made me more aware of how much there still is to learn. Throughout my coursework, I have explored ideas about creativity, leadership, and technology in learning environments. Those topics made me think more deeply about how people learn, how environments shape that learning, and how leaders influence growth. As I move forward...]]></description><link>https://bisho121.wixsite.com/juliabishop/post/continuing-to-learn-what-comes-next</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69adddaf7eb34e89d6fc9b43</guid><pubDate>Sun, 08 Mar 2026 20:42:39 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>bisho121</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[More Than a Game: How My Goals Shifted, Not My Why]]></title><description><![CDATA[Module 4: Goal Reflection This reflection was written as part of Module 4 of my Capstone Portfolio course, where the focus is on revisiting the goals I had for my master’s program when I first applied and reflecting on how those goals have progressed or changed over time. At the beginning of this program, I entered with a specific vision of how I wanted to grow as an educator and coach, particularly in how I designed learning experiences and supported others. Since then, my academic...]]></description><link>https://bisho121.wixsite.com/juliabishop/post/more-than-a-game-how-my-goals-shifted-not-my-why</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6988bfe45275ae5022b70772</guid><pubDate>Sun, 08 Feb 2026 16:56:01 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>bisho121</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
