Education Assignment 715

Keep a weekly journal of what you are learning through the readings and applications in your workplace. In your weekly entries please give particular attention to the supplemental texts and materials in addition to the course text. What materials or issues raised in the text, weekly featured supplemental texts, lectures, or electronic resources are particularly difficult for you? Communicate your understandings and misconceptions, successes and failures with implementing these methods by providing concrete examples of your own evolving philosophy of educational diversity and community. Provide illustrations of your learning processes and expectations. Share your values, thoughts, and feelings regarding accommodating diversity and equity while simultaneously promoting academic excellence, and/or the nature of this type of work. You might find it helpful to use the weekly essential and/or guiding questions as a starting point. Each week’s entry should be approximately 250 words long.
