TEACHING ACTIVITIES

Teaching Philosophies

 

Teaching Philosophy 1: Everybody has the ability to learn, albeit, in different ways. Some faster or slower, some in more conventional or unconventional ways. A successful teaching and learning cycle requires being aware of these differences, identifying them, and addressing them.

 

Teaching Philosophy 2: It makes no sense to spend an outrageous amount of time assessing what you know the students will forget immediately or shortly after the assessment. The key is to assess, build, and develop the relevant skills and competencies that would last and be relevant beyond the lifetime of a teaching circle, while making the students aware of current trends in the field.
