Honoring the Differences
It's a Transformational Process!
T.R.A.N.S.F.O.R.M.A.T.I.O.N.
Each new semester, teachers and learners enter classes thinking a certain way about the teaching/learning process. Often, a teacher will have a roomful of "students" who are more interested in the grade than learning the content or developing the abilities needed to think for themselves. Many will be in somewhat of a coccoon.
Much like the struggle involved in the transformation from caterpillar to butterfly, teachers will be INSPIRED to: push, stretch, stress, be CHALLENGED, and finally be EMPOWERED to teach in a way that will take each "student" on a transformational journey to begin flying as a "life long learner", with HOT Skills for thinking.
Enjoy the transformation,
