Knowledge sharing

not modeling the working and learning environment I am hoping to foster in my own classroom. And, relying on my own knowledge was not enough--at least I began to recognize this during the last week when I finally asked a colleague for help. So, in order for the community to serve its real purpose, I need to first form a small collective Google+ rollout team. I learned that sharing an idea and responsibility among a collective will lead to greater accomplishment than single…

students have the opportunity to build leadership and problem solving skills in an hands-on manner (p. 770). It also showed me that I had previously, although unintentionally, helped students participate in a service learning project. With this new knowledge, however, I am now able to see how I could incorporate more community involvement to make the project even better. For the past three years, I have lead an after school club called the Royal…

As soon as a person turns five years old they are expected to go to school and stay in school until they have obtained a degree; in fact, in the state of California, kids are required to attend school up until high school.

an external eye, one of my major weaknesses in the first few weeks was that I doubted myself, the extent of my knowledge, and my ability to help my students. I felt somewhat out of place in my tutoring sessions considering the proximity in age and my lack of experience in tutoring reading comprehension and literacy skills. Within a few weeks, I realized that I had an academic knowledge base, coupled with a few years of college experience, that I could employ to communicate to my students the…

The disinclination of humans to question the information they perceive is a timeless phenomenon. This concept dates back to 380 BC, when Plato wrote the short story, “Allegory of the Cave”, in his magnum opus, The Republic. The allegory depicts humankind as prisoners, bound so they can only see what is directly in front of them: shadows cast by various objects passing behind them. However, as they have only ever been exposed to the shadows, the prisoners believe they are the true forms of each…
