Reading guidlines for 600
Categories: Classes
I wanted to state/reiterate where the 600 class was at in terms of reading, so folks could target their reading a little better and make better use of their time. This will also help people go back before class and look over the things we are going to be talking about that day.
Feb 27th -- We'll talk about the "isms" of the philosophy of education chapter in some depth. They'll be a Powerpoint (which will be on the website soon) to help us out. We'll also talk about the dangers of "isms."
I quote Ferris Bueler: "isms, in my opinion, are not good. A person shouldn't believe in an ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon: 'I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me.' Of course, he was The Walrus. I could be The Walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off of people."
March 6th -- We'll talk about the articles at the end of Chapter Five. Your Pedagogic Creed can also be turned in on this date.
March 13th -- Spring Break. Have fun in Cancun.
March 20th -- We'll talk about Chapter 4 -- the sociology of education. Read the Rist and the Wells/Serna articles at the end of the chapter as well, but you can skip the Goodman one if you want. This is the last day to turn in your Pedagogic Creed as well.
Again, this is for my 600 class only. If you are in 110, we're still pretty much on track.
