Reading for Tomorrow, Oct 15th

Hey everyone,

Sorry for the confusion with the reading. From what I can see it expects us to have a Harvard database login which obviously we do not have. I have been trying to find you an easier copy to find but have had no such luck, so here are some quick instructions to find the article through the UBC Library Database. Make sure you are on ubcsecure to open it, as you most likely will not be able to if you are on a separate wifi network.

  1. Go to www.library.ubc.ca
  2. Type the following into the general search box: “managing on the twelfth”
  3. Click the top link that comes up titled “A curious plan: managing on the twelfth.”
  4. On the next page that opens click on Browse Journal to open a new page at the Harvard database
  5. On the next page, it shows a bunch of dates and journal issues. Click on the 1990-1999 expand box. Next, click on Volume 63, and then click on Issue 3 from September 1993. This will open a new page
  6. Find the article labelled “Teaching and Practice” and click on the PDF link and it will open!

Sorry for the confusion with getting the article! I know it’s a hassle and if you cannot access it we will do our best to explain it all to you tomorrow!

Thanks!

Hi everyone!

Please read the following article on teacher student dialogue:
http://hepgjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.17763/haer.63.3.y112450043270360

Additionally, the following video talks about creativity in education and touches on how it has been oppressed in the classroom:

Entry Slip:
1. Create a dialogue between a teacher and a student, (approximately 4-8 lines,) in which the student is either a) empowered by the teacher, or b) oppressed by the teacher. This can be fictional or from past experiences in the classroom. Bring this to class to discuss.

See you next week!
