EDUA 5782 Reigniting the Teaching Spirit

REIGNITING THE TEACHING SPIRIT
If you are a teacher at heart, but amidst the current culture of education with its emphasis on test scores, standards, and bureaucracy, you feel you have lost your way or passion for teaching, then this course is for you.

This course is designed to reignite a teacher’s spirit by first looking at his or her inner landscape, before developing a plan to approach his or her craft with renewed confidence and clarity. The participant will learn to embrace the paradoxes inherent in teaching and find effective ways to use these paradoxes to their best advantage in the classroom.
