As educators are chosen to be world changers. As I look back at the beginning of this course, I am reminded of Matthew 28:19, King James version says “Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”. We are challenged, charge, and entrusted by God, to teach children that God allowed in our lives. Proverbs 22:6, King James version” Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it”. I choose Liberty University because of its commitment and the strong Christian background to help me further my education. “The School of Education at Liberty University is committed to providing the highest quality Christian education based on the principles …show more content…

We recognize that every student has different learning styles. Know two are the same. As educators, we are the ones that will meet their needs, wants and even some of their desires. Teaching them to strive to be the best they can be. Having integrity, responsibility, accountability, and commitment to achieve, succeed, and be successful in life. The SimSchool and DUP assignment gave me a glance into my future. The SimSchool set me up for a virtual experience in the classroom using different tools for effective instruction. Introduced me to different scenario’s, as issues arise in the class. From sleeping, talking, needing to go to the bathroom, doing homework for other classes, to putting on make-up and more. The simschool program showed me what a teacher goes through every minute, day, and week. What strategies would I use? Giving me the chance to gather data, meet individual learner needs, to pick and choose how different strategies work. It lets me have control and showed me how I could change the class by giving assignments, asking questions, and following lesson plans for each day. What a unique experience. Teaching values and morals, meeting the needs of

  • My Philosophy Of Higher Education

    835 Words  | 2 Pages

    My philosophy of higher education is that thus far we have realized that the gift of sharing knowledge is one of the keys to success in our society. We have learned from so many great philosophers, scientist, and researchers that have fueled our knowledge in a vast variety subjects. The importance of passing on this knowledge and improving our society has shown to be important in human survival and our growth in the years to come. As the years pass and technology is getting more advanced, the need for higher education is steadily rising. In the past years, a bachelor’s degree was viewed as one of the greatest accomplishments of that time. Now in today’s standards, only having a bachelors degree will not suffice. Thus proving that higher education is the pillars for growth in humanity. Similar to my philosophy, I believe my Christian experience relates to my views of higher education. For instance, as Christians, we have learned that the keys to success is reading and learning from the Bible. Just as we have learned from past philosophers, the Bible provides Christians with knowledge to continue to walk in the path that God has paved for us to go to heaven. In addition, talking and communicating with God helps us in times of need. He is our teacher and supervisor providing us useful knowledge to succeed. From that guidance, it is our job to pass that knowledge to other Christians to grow in our faith. In both higher education and Christianity, our job is to pass our knowledge and faith to others to maintain and improve human survival for years to come. Moreover, in today’s society, there is a growing need for Christ centered learning. I believe that CBU offers that and more. By combining my Christian experience and philosophy of ...

  • Case Study Of ATLAS

    1572 Words  | 4 Pages

    Every video I watched displayed tools that I could use in my own classroom. The instructional strategies and models used in the classrooms were great. My current teaching philosophy about instructional strategies and models would be that they are great to use. As a teacher, looking for ways to help teach certain lessons is a must. Every teacher found different ways to teach the materials to their students. It is always great to have resources in the classroom to look back on. Students love to have resources to guide them. In the video (Case #1112), I would emulate their strategy by letting my students use a textbook. I feel that textbooks are reliable sources and can be used to validate certain materials. In the video, you can tell that the students were using the textbook as a tool to prove their discussion with each other. In the video (Case #876), I would avoid assessing my students in whole-group discussion. I would have my student in groups to see how they communicate with each t=other about our discussion. Seeing my students evaluating each other’s opinions would be a great way into assessing their knowledge about the lesson. A classroom environment I would like to teach in would be with students who are ready to ask questions. Students who are not afraid to express their thoughts about the instruction. It would be easier for me to assess my students if that were

  • Scot Danforth's Becoming A Great Inclusive Teacher Reflection Paper

    915 Words  | 2 Pages

    When I use to go into classrooms I was more of an observer and just blended in, but now I am starting to see myself with authority in the classroom. This experience also teaches me about the major difference that just a single grade can make. While working in the kindergarten classroom we are focusing on learning the alphabet, but in the first grade classroom we are reading books that have multiple sentences on a page. Therefore, as I continue on in this program I will understand how to best use what I am being taught to help those that I am teaching. As for my personal teaching philosophies I am learning how I want to make sure I get across to all of my students. In my elementary school, students who were struggling, including myself, were pulled out of the classroom to receive the help they need, but now I see how the idea of an inclusive classroom can be so much more beneficial. Keeping all of the students in one classroom and fitting the lesson plans to fit them all will allow the students to flourish with all different types of learners. In conclusion, I feel that this experience is better preparing me to become a teacher because it is exposing me to an actual classroom instead of just reading about

  • Education is not just in the classroom

    1837 Words  | 4 Pages

    As a teacher, my goal is not to bring the world to the children, but to show them how they can achieve what the world has to offer. To show them that they can do many wonderful things on their own, but it is also okay to ask for help when they need it. My teaching style is that of an art teacher; colorful, hands-on, open to new ideas and changes. My philosophy is a good teacher is one who can not only teach, but also understands her students' needs. A great teacher is one who teaches, understands and listens. Excellent teachers can teach, understands and is willing to admit they are wrong and also willing to learn from their students. You only get one chance to make a lasting impression on a child, show them that you not only care but also shows value and interest in what they think makes you an excellent teacher.

  • Reflection On What Went Well

    712 Words  | 2 Pages

    After finishing the teaching part of the lesson, I realized that not everything goes according to plan. For example, in our lesson plan, we had the explain portion detailed and outlined to teach students the technical terms of what they were seeing in the stations and other activities and make it a collaborative effort within groups to work with the vocabulary words. However, the teaching of the plan was not well executed. Also, I learned that teaching a topic does not have to be boring or just full of worksheets. Fun, engaging lab stations and interactive activities can fulfill the standards and requirements just as well, if not better, than basic worksheets and PowerPoint lectures. Lastly, I realized that lesson planning and teaching require a great deal of effort and work, but it is all worth it when a light bulb goes off in a students’ head and they learn something new and are excited to be learning and extend their science

    It is my belief that the goals of education are to provide students with critical thinking skills and the tools to live successful and prosperous lives. As a future educator, I play one of, if not, the most significant role when it comes to meeting the goals of education. It is not only my job but also my responsibility to ensure that all students are equipped to live an independent, successful life and to become an emotionally intelligent citizen. I will meet the goals of education through engaging students with hands-on activities, using different strategies to meet the needs of all students, and creating a community-based atmosphere where students feel comfortable to learn.

Being an idealistic person, I want to be so much for my students; a teacher that shows caring, compassion, a helper with their problems, and a positive role model. After my students leave my classroom, I want them to know more than just a few vocabulary words that they memorized for a test. I want to provide my students with a solid foundation that they can continue to build upon long after they have left my classroom. I never want my students to later struggle to fill in the gaps of their education because I was an inadequate teacher. Above all else, I want to pass on to my students my love and joy for learning, and help them to see that education is the key to their future endeavors.
