Laurie, it is so simple, but I need to be reminded all the time. It’s all about putting things in perspective. By the way, guest bloggers rock! Thank you.
Wow! I really appreciated reading this, especially your take on ideas to “let go of.” It’s always nice to hear it from someone else.
Are “schooling” and “education” synonomous above? I understand a difference between the two, wherein “schooling” is the whole experience of socialization of kids (whether that be good or bad), and “education” is the drawing of knowledge out of kids. Perhaps this is a moot issue here, but I wonder if it is a distinction that more than a few of our students and parents make.
Thanks, and good luck with the move!
Thanks for that insight, Jim, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone make that distinction between schooling and education.
Hmmmm…..good question Jim. I’m not sure that everyone sees education as a result of schooling. Many people’s experiences are that school is a means to an end: a diploma. What they learn along the way is incidental….at best. It is the paper itself that matters. And that may be because they don’t remember anything that they “learned”…….
with love,
Laurie
I like this one:
“…their suspicion of schools, and of us, is understandable given these circumstances…”.
We need to keep this in mind when we meet with parents. Some have been made to think that they were stupid at languages when they were younger, and are just trying to protect their kids from what they may perceive as yet another new whacko approach. That is why we need to work at our craft and get results.
If only I were going to be in the district long enough to teach students whose parents I taught with TPRS!!!!!!
with love,
Laurie
