K+and+Lab

=This will be your workspace during the workshop. When we have small group work, this is where you will post your discussions.=

You watched the video //Do You Teach or Do You Educate.// In it Socrates was quoted as saying "//Education is teh kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel."// Do you agree or disagree with Socrates? Share why you believe this.

We are stoking the flame by the activities we provide for them. The children take what we give them and attempt to fill their own vessels. We are never "full vessels" we are always learning. As teachers we have a great responsibility because we are with these children more than some of their parents. Because we teach to the whole child, what we say and do influences them emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually

What makes a person smart? Is it a high IQ score, or are there other ways to measure intelligence? The mind and its intelligences are uniquely different in humans. W hat strategies might you employ to help learners achieve the goals you value most in education?
