Hey everyone. I just wanted to enter my last post for the semester. (I'm am also doing this in avoidance of school work.) I would like to thank you Dr. Bogad for a great semester. I learned a great deal from this course and I think it was really helpful to take this before I student teach. I am glad I was able to refresh my memory about these ideas and issues surrounding education. I have had a great deal of experience in many classroom thus far. I have taught in rural, suburban, and urban school settings. The most profound experiences that stick with me are the experiences in the urban school settings. I learned so much from working with those students in those urban communities and I will carry that with me allways.
Also a word on the Feinstein school. As Dr. Bogad has mentioned before as a teacher we need to create instruction that relates to, challenges, and inspires our students to learn think and grow. It is also a standard of teaching (RIBTS 5) If you don't know what RIBTS stands for, you soon will, trust me. It is important to engage students to think and create no matter what "level" they may be on. It is also important to recognize each student as an individual and every student has something to contribute.
I have included a video I found which I think has some inspiring quotes and ideas. I hope you feel the same.
So good luck to you all in your future experiences and remember to keep an open mind. It has been a pleasure!
