This is due in 8 hours. It is pretty simple. ONLY one page!!
After you have finished reading one of the book choices for this course I would like you to
simply write a one page response to something in the book that really spoke to you as an
educator. For example:
- What was it about this piece of literature that will change the way you relate to
students, peers, parents, or your administrator? - How will this book help to shape the framework of your educational philosophy?
- How did this book reinforce or strengthen your commitment to become an educator?
- What really stood out in this book and changed your perspective regarding the field of
education?
I don’t expect you to address all of these questions, just pick one and tell me how the book you
choose impacted you as a future teacher. Your response should be about one page in length. - BOOK OPTIONS ARE LISTED BELOW…
