@juliaedenhill I think I need to slow the process down. I know what the end goal is - I need to allow more time for students to work the process/steps, rather than emphasizing on the end product #WoCoMentorMe
@Gallo_wths @juliaedenhill We need to get students to look at a mistake as part of the process and not an end failure. We need them to reflect on their work to see where they went wrong and “failed” in order to grow forward #WocoMentorMe
@juliaedenhill I try to be honest with my students and tell them when I’ve messed something up. I think showing them that I make mistakes or have failures, but that I have to keep going or try again, makes the process real. If we’re not growing, we’re not learning #WoCoMentorMe
@juliaedenhill I find that students are so afraid of failing. Or sometimes they don’t want to fail because they just don’t want to try again/put the work in again #WoCoMentorMe
@juliaedenhill I teach remedial English classes and for many of my students their years of struggle and failure have caused them to think they’re a lost cause. I’m still working on breaking this barrier faster so that I have more time to work with students to reach new goals #WocoMentorMe
@Gallo_wths @juliaedenhill It’s really difficult when you have multiple, or new, preps. Just remember that it’ll be easier the second time. I’ve found having set, but flexible, routines are helpful. #WocoMentorMe
