Today’s class was about the hidden but extremely important function of teachers as counselors. Students’ well being is top priority, so we should be aware of the ways we can offer support both academically and emotionally. #EDUC200#01FA22
@MaxVerdugoJMU Great example! There are only a handful of students, who likely chose to engage in this particular activity, learning with real, hands-on experience and the guidance of a teacher.
@_lizdegroot Great example of perennialism — it’s clear that the classroom is teacher-centered, and the students learning in a traditional classroom setup, but the current source of knowledge is coming from the book in the teacher’s hands.
A class in WA was concerned about bugs dying. On Earth Day they decided to go share with others the importance of not killing bugs and protecting the environment! Great example of social reconstructivism — advocating for nature and working to better the world 💚 #EDUC200#01FA22
@mswevley This is a great example of how dependability not only applies in the workplace or the classroom, but in society as a whole. Not just through civil responsibility, but also through duty and care for one another at the most fundamental level.
@kckaseyj I totally agree Kasey! And I enjoyed all of the great points in this article about what it means to have a “fun” classroom. I also saw a lot that related to another google norm — even young students can find meaning in their work when they’re in a positive, engaging space!
