RE: Masters of Teaching Mind Dump #23

in Education3 years ago

I find that the study is quite interesting, as there are things that make a lot of sense after looking at research from psychological and team management sort of perspectives. Of course, I get driven nuts by the somewhat unwieldy bureaucratic reporting that seems to be needed... I think that things would be much easier if there wasn't funding bodies (education departments) and parents that needed to be appeased... it sets the wrong priorities on things.

However, much of what I'm learning in the Masters is more theoretical. Very little in the way of HOW to implement it well... plus, I'm told that much of what we learn... is resisted heavily, by parents, by schools, by education boards, by textbook manufacturers...

... we were told... be idealistic but practical. Survive, and make the change when we are in positions of power. Sigh...
