What experiences/strengths/attributes do you bring to our learning in this class? by Shihua https://padlet.com/shihuabrazill/bt6k2irnn0g37lrv Related back to the Week 1 reading from Parker Palmer's concept of "We teach who we are", we all arrive at this day with different passions, backgrounds, culture and life experiences. The STUFF that makes us unique will encourage collaboration and help us identify strengths and the "ying and the yang" of our learning community. Share one life experience that may set you apart or help identify your individual approach to learning and/or your learning strengths. For example, one experience I bring is an international focus to teaching, with a vast perspective on how cultures and priorities vary for families around the world. en-us 2020-08-19 23:48:30 UTC 2020-08-23 02:21:37 UTC hello@padlet.com I have lived and taught in many places in the world and with many different student populations. shihuabrazill https://padlet.com/shihuabrazill/bt6k2irnn0g37lrv/wish/688713268 2020-08-20 04:31:49 UTC https://padlet.com/shihuabrazill/bt6k2irnn0g37lrv/wish/688713268 I have had many opportunities to learn about and appreciate cultures other than my own, and I bring an excitement to share these same opportunities with others. https://padlet.com/shihuabrazill/bt6k2irnn0g37lrv/wish/689094029 2020-08-20 12:57:06 UTC https://padlet.com/shihuabrazill/bt6k2irnn0g37lrv/wish/689094029 https://padlet.com/shihuabrazill/bt6k2irnn0g37lrv/wish/689835929 I have had the opportunity to observe classroom teaching and coaching.
