My philosophy concerning education is simply that it is as powerful as you want it to be. People can change themselves when they change the way they think. Teachers have the power to impact how students feel about how they learn, what they learn and the way in which they learn it. This is a powerful concept. If we teach kids to be conscientious thinkers they will possess a power that will drive a major part of their life. No matter the subject or the lesson I think there can always be a subtext at work pushing kids to think about what they know and how they have come to know it. My philosophy is that metacognition is a powerful tool that should always be at work in the classroom working to make the adults of tomorrow better equipped to handle the world as they learn about it.
