Assignment #2.8

An educational philosophy is extremely important to have. It helps guide you through the journey of an educator. In my EDF 1005 class the professor expressed to us that every educator must have an educational philosophy. I could not agree with her more. I will explore why this is important.
My education philosophy is in line with that of Reconstructionism. I believe that education should focus on the students but at the same time reconstructing society into a better place. It is obvious that educational system is having problems. I believe that this system has to be changed first and then we can begin focusing on aiding the children reconstructing society. When the curriculum is changed and the way funds are allocated is changed, educators will be able to work on teaching children ethics and morals that do not conflict with their beliefs of course.
My personal educational philosophy is educators must help students become the best students and individuals as possible. We create great students by catering to the different ways that students learn and creating a constructive learning environment. We must prove to the students that learning is fun and everyone deserves the chance to learn. We create great individuals by teaching them morals through our actions. Educators must remember that there are different cultures in each class so we must be successful.
