The first draft of the philosophy is due on October 1, 2000. We will discuss the guidelines in class. Your philosophy of education is a very important document. It will be one of the items you will need to include in your teaching portfolio. You will need to spend time thinking and articulating it.
Time is a critical factor.
Students will receive a group grade for this work. You will be required to hand in a single report of this research to the instructor on your presentation day. You are required to keep a journal for this class. I recommend that you make a journal entry at least once a week. Each student will share at least one on a current issue in education from the local newspaper.
