Well, another day, another blog. This makes 7. Or 8. This, however, is a forced blog. A mandatory master college experience. Where I shall share my deepest thoughts, feelings, and "person who is an asshole" opinions regarding education, and the use of new technologies therein.
I shall be imparting to the world my vast troves of historical knowledge, which include (but are not limited to) several important dates during WWII; the names of at least (at the very least) 9 or 7 presidents; up to (but not promising) 2 vice presidents; one or more important women in history; and lastly, but certainly not leastly--why Andrew Jackson was the biggest badass to EVER run this country. A crazy, crazy man, that Andrew Jackson.
I love teaching, and I actually love history, and I think that I can make a rather terrific difference in the lives of the many children with whom I shall come into contact. Also, I will be delving into the world of social studies (because God help me get a job if i don't). Social studies will be great. Psychology, sociology, economics, geography--all interesting, all fun.
My teaching philosophy:
Bullet: Providing fair, and equitable education for everyone, regardless of background, race, socioeconomic status, etc.
Bullet: Recognizing that all students are diverse learners, and have distinct needs.
Bullet: Education should be one of the things in this country that provide all with an equal opportunity, regardless of class or socio economic status.
Bullet: Curriculum should be meaningful to all students.
Boom!
