Wednesday, May 5, 2010. In class today, we had Skype conversations with Luther grads who are currently teaching abroad. My group talked with a middle school/high school band teacher in Korea. Today's conversation renewed my interest in teaching abroad for the following reasons:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Laura's Paideia II Blog. Education Needs New Ideas.

There was one particular passage from our latest reading which stood out to me. Thursday, February 18, 2010. I can only imagine what the real process of budget cuts would be like, with more than four differing opinions and versions of "normal" to try to reconcile in a way that will make everyone happy. But my ...

Laura's Paideia II Blog: November 2008
http://forsla01.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 19, 2008. During lecture on Monday night, we watched the first half of the movie "Chalk." I found this movie very interesting and realistic, although exaggerated. While watching the movie, I wrote down some quotes and observations which I would like to discuss. Quote 1: "War stories from the front lines of teaching.". Observation 3: The "fun" teacher told his giften students to act average and to dumb down, because they knew more than he did about history/social studies. This is a...

Friday, October 31, 2008. Make a Smilebox slideshow. I finally figured out how to make a slideshow! It only has three pictures, but it's a start! Reflection on "Teacher Man". A second quote from Chapter 13: "I ask you, is it the task of the teacher to supply canon fodder for the military-industrial complex? Are we shaping packages for the corporate assembly line?

Laura's Paideia II Blog: The Business of Education
http://forsla01.blogspot.com/2010/03/business-of-education.html
Wednesday, March 10, 2010. The Business of Education. In today's lecture, we talked about structure. Structure is an essential element of business. This inspired me to think about school as if it were a business and the structure which it is made up of. The structure is as follows:. School Board - Board of Directors. Department Heads - Mid-Level Managers. Students - The Product. Government - Auditing Authorities. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Laura's Paideia II Blog. Education Needs New Ideas.

Laura's Paideia II Blog: September 2008
http://forsla01.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 30, 2008. Reflection on Chapter Three. I think that Erikson's theory is very interesting and helpful. As a future elementary school music teacher, I focused on the information for that age group of children. According to Erikson's theory, the children I will teach will be in the fourth stage: achieving a sense of industry and avoiding feelings of inferiority. Industry is defined in our book as "eagerness to engage in productive work.". Wednesday, September 24, 2008. This lecture was ve...

Thursday, December 11, 2008. Reflection on the semester. Well, this semester is nearly over. Only one day of classes left and one week of finals. This semester flew by very quickly, and I can't believe how much I have learned in just a few short months. I am just itching to get out into the classrooms and apply what I have learned thus far. This summer, I will be able to apply my new knowledge at the child care center where I work. That will be a good start. I'll keep you posted. Friday, December 5, 2008.
