Well, I just realized that I was suppose to attend class today. It only dawned on me now because as I was reading everyone's post, I got the impression that there was class, when I went to check my calendar of events, it was there in black and white, a scheduled class session and I was thinking that we had a moodle session today. My mistake, I got my dates confused. My apologies to everyone.
"To teach is to learn twice" Joseph Joubert, Pensees, 1842
I like to think that every day as I teach, I learn something new. My students constantly teach me new ways that I can improve how I deliver a lesson, how to make the lesson more engaging and how I can keep them focused. Everyday is a lesson learned.

No apologies needed Yolie. I like your quote because for me it is very true: I DO learn again when I teach.
ReplyDeleteYolie!, we missed you. Faye and I had a healthy discussion about ch.3 and Christine brought us a treat again. To add to your quote, about learning twice...I learn from my students, sometimes, I feel even more than they learn from me!
ReplyDeleteThis really is a profound quote for teachers, especially for me. There is always something I learn from what I teach. It isn't always about the information I impart, but often it is about me- my teaching style, my attitude, the strategies I use, or what else a student might need from me. Good reminder.
