For this weeks blog I took a look at Annelle's blog. She did a reflection about what she thought of the article. I really agree with her main points that she talks about in her blog. I especially liked her second paragraph:
"This
article made me appreciate our classroom even more than i already did,
because Professor Bogad doesn't lecture us. She converses with us, based
our curriculum with the thought of different students on her mind. Our
classroom dynamic isn't being forced to listen to a 2 hour lecture, its
conversation and connecting while having a discussion or debate within
us. I think that all classrooms should be built this way, students feel a
lot more appreciated and empowered to come and learn in their
classroom. It's an awesome feeling!"
Annelle really hits the nail on the head here. Dr. Bogad treats us as equals, and doesn't question us whatsoever. She wants us to express how we feel about things and be comfortable with our opinions. Having a professor like her has showed me that this is the way I should be with my future students. Everything I've learned within this class has had a great effect on me and its such a great feeling to know that I'm able to be me no matter what.
i agree completely
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you and Annelle. If more classes were taught like this, students would be so much more interested in going to class. It's great when students are encouraged to speak their mind.
