Reinforcing the idea that you won’t get mad and that your students can be completely honest with you during this kind of dialogue is important. #EDST3510
one thing i would change about the cogeneration dialogue was preparing the students before hand; perhaps telling them what they would be talking about so they can go home & think about what they want to say & come prepared. #EDST3510
I know if a teacher asked me for feedback I would be hesitant to provide my opinion on their teaching. I definitely want to create an environment that the students feel comfortable enough to give constructive criticism. #EDST3510
Although a certain type of teaching might be effective for one generation doesn’t mean it will work for the rest. Paying attention to what works for your students is important because most likely it wont be the same. #EDST3510
i hope to do the freewrite activity more often in the beginning of class. it was something i havent done in a while and was refreshing to do. #EDST3510
analyzing the differences between each type of teaching pedagogy was interesting because in the end, i really found that they are essentially all the same just with different approaches. #EDST3510
Kinesthetic Learning was always the best way for me to learn in school and im sure for others as well. I definitely want to implement activities and exercises that involve moving around rather than sitting & listening to a lecture in my teaching. #EDST3510
Reading Emdins book is definitely getting me even more excited to be a teacher. As I read im always thinking “oo I wanna do this!” or “oooo this is gooood” #EDST3510
when reading the context & content chapter, it genuinely made me want to connect with my students outside of the classroom and attend things/events that are important to them. #EDST3510
Today in my breakout room we were talking about kids who under & over participate. As a future teacher, I want to come up with ideas to make sure the students who are afraid to participate find comfort in talking in front of their peers. #EDST3510
I can tell the principal hates yelling at her students but knows that being tough is only what will make her students better. She knows the only way to push them to be better and try their hardest is by putting the pressure on them to be the best they can be. #EDST3510
@stepthemovie I love how the college counselors are so supportive of their students. It definitely makes the process much easier & less stressful considering the students are put in more difficult situations regarding financial aid. #EDST3510
I love the coaches enthusiasm, shes very animated and I believe this is what lets her dancers feel confident in their dancing and pushes them to be the best they can be. @stepthemovie#EDST3510
Today in class we talked about community based organzations & in high school I worked w disabled kids to put on the show “Wizard of Oz.” It give them an opportunity to be in the spotlight which was very heartwarming considering their big smiles at the end of the show. #EDST3510
Professors rarely recognize their students mental health & fail to bring light to self-care. This past week I have been struggling greatly with my mental health from stress. I’m so glad that Dr. Adjapong is able to recognize the break that us students need & deserve. #EDST3510
