Description

Few things define individual pedagogy more than where learning begins. Each educator has his or her own starting point. Reflecting on this essential element is key to understanding how to shape all that follows and the foundation of reflective practice. A necessary component for the novice and veteran alike, we all need to know where we begin our journey if we plan to improve upon it.

Participants will:

• Identify the essence of good teaching
• Engage in meaningful reflective practice
• Consider long term goals
• Establish a set of objectives for individual professional development
