@HannahHelton13 I believe that can be done in a way that allows all of the students to participate and each feel like they are taking away information. I feel like time management would be difficult with this.
“The underlying themes of Vygotsky’s theory on cognitive development have thus often been summarized as: (i) the significance of culture..” (Zhou & Brown, p. 1)
How can we use the students’ culture in class to help others learn? #AUFOUN3100
@calleneducation I agree the world can be a distraction, but it is also important to realize that we can learn so much from the world. What is too much of a distraction?
@madelynbrown98 Growing up, I think we are all so focused on grades because we are told that those define who we are. It is so important to know that grades do not define the person we are and that the process of learning is greater than the outcome.
“Authoritative practices teach students that they have no business questioning those with power over them..while collaborative practices teach students that they have both the right and the ability to ask questions and formulate their own answers.” (Hinchey, 2010, pg 131)

@AnnaDove20 This is so true! Teachers need to make sure that every student is in a comfortable learning environment and knows that his/her success is just as important as someone else’s.
@emilylrut I think it is so important to remember that each student is different and will excel in his/her own way. Teachers should not put one student on a pedestal and make the other students meet that one.
“Rather than serving to give nonprivileged students a genuine opportunity to do better than their parents, schools more often serve as a mechanism to keep students in whatever class they started out in.”(Hinchey, 2010, p. 94) #AUCTEE3100
@SarahBrandler I think this is why it is so important to create a collaborative environment in which all students are comfortable in the learning space and accepted by others.
“the goal of American schools has long been to function as a melting pot, erasing differences among individuals by processing them in the mold of standardized public schooling, involving not only academics but Americanization.” (Hinchey, 2010, 81) #AUCTEE3100
@Drake_jones98 I agree that students need to know the vocabulary before a lesson so that they are not confused. This is so important to remember because they don’t know everything.
@Drake_jones98 It is definitely important for students to know that they have to give us respect in order for them to get respect from us. It’s awful to think that some students are not being taught better outside of school.
