video response

Though meant to be very comical, I'm sure Seinfeld's episode in teaching will really be what it does feel like at times to teach. With the one student teaching experience I've had, I felt that it was sort of hard to get the student's to speak up in the discussion. Many classes I've taken at MSU, that students wouldn't talk in, have seemed the same way --and we're college students. We should be promoting our beliefs at this point. Right? It seems to always be the same students leading and defining the classroom conversations --whether it be enlightening, educationally speaking, or not. One of my greatest challenges in my classroom will be to get inside the student's head that doesn't talk much. Then, I will know I'm effectively doing something.

I'm writing on all of the blogs, and mine felt lonely, so I wrote something on it.
