A Teaching Philosophy is a purposeful and reflective essay about the author’s teaching beliefs and practices. If you go into teaching, you will likely need to submit one when you apply to a teaching program and when you apply for jobs. For this assignment, answer the following prompts.
What is the purpose of schooling and education in our society?
What role does a teacher have in promoting social justice in society (if any)?
What are the conditions that support effective learning for students?
What are some of your commitments as an educator (i.e., what kind of classroom and learning experience do you want to create for your students?)?
What are some of the teaching practices that you think are in the best interests of students, and why would you want to use these in your classroom?
Assignment Expectations:
For each response you compose, be sure to explain what you mean. Quality papers will include an example to help support each explanation. For instance, don’t just say you believe in hands-on learning or culturally relevant pedagogy. You should describe what this would look like or give examples in practice. Each answer should be at least a paragraph.
Include at least one piece of textual evidence from a reading to support each of your answers. Insert a piece of textual evidence (quote or specific example) and interpret/explain how that quote/textual evidence supports or illuminates your answer.
