I enjoyed reading about how education started with survival and the passing of stories and traditions into more philosophical and even political institutions.

I knew about Maria Montessori and Jean Piaget but I enjoyed reading about John Dewey and Friedrich Froebel. They all had different philosophies and views about what was important but they all agreed that children learn from action.

As a former public school student I always assumed my experience was the same as everyone else's. I have learned a lot about compensatory education such as programs like Head Start that try to provide early education for children 3-5. I learned more about special education and environments of least restriction and inclusion. These lessons will be valuable to me in becoming a lead teacher in the future.

I never knew this! I guess because when I was in middle or high school, no one ever formed a prayer group. Being born into a Christian family, I would’ve loved to have participated in a prayer group because it would’ve allowed me to meet new people who were like me and to also start the school day off with a prayer, not only by myself, but with other students. -Breanna McKnight ]]> 2021-06-21 15:43:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dr_rebeccalharris/MostImportant620/wish/1617894020 What I learned in EDUC3200 https://padlet.com/dr_rebeccalharris/MostImportant620/wish/1617983172 I knew about diversity in public schools, but never thought how a child's diversity and culture can effect their education. Every child comes from different households. It was surprising to me to hear that teachers are having to change their teaching methods.This is important to understand as I may have to change my lessons to meet the needs of those children with different cultures and backgrounds. -Gabby Godwin ]]> 2021-06-21 16:37:49 UTC https://padlet.com/dr_rebeccalharris/MostImportant620/wish/1617983172 What I learned in EDUC3200 https://padlet.com/dr_rebeccalharris/MostImportant620/wish/1618003620 I learned how education offered women jobs in American making it the first women dominated job.

This was important to me as it helps close educational achievement gaps for all students.

This is very common in my hometown, so I found learning the correct terminology to be very interesting.

So many of these book; I read as a student and currently offer to my students. 
I was also educated in this class about the legalities of religion in schools. I always thought a student could lead prayer as in the cafeteria or celebration. I did not realize until this class that a student is allowed to pray independently but not invite others to join. I found that interesting. 
The chapters on funding public schools was very informative. I knew schools were funded both at the State and Local level, but did not know in what ways the funding occurred. I am glad to now know more about the funding of schools.

 Equality focuses on what is fair within the group. Equity highlights what is fair for the individual. In public education, both group and individual needs are important. All students should have equal access to high quality education and once they get it, they should be afforded equitable supports to achieve success.
