~:[CH10 - Day 46]:~ Empower
I think we all have learned something new over the stretch of almost one year now. Whether it be about a new hobby or simply how to log into Zoom, the knowledge we have gained has been incredible. I decided to sign up for a graduate course on empowering and motivating students. It may have made me busies than I have wanted, but on the eve of finishing up the course after quizzes and papers, it's nice to learn and grow while seeing all that you have been missing. It's interesting to see how to balance your own control over situations and make them better when you empower those around you like the students in your class. It's always been said that true leaders do not command. This course furthered my thoughts into the classrooms as teachers keep this same balance by empowering their students to be apart of the learning process. It is not always easy to implement these and a huge challenge to implement it mid-stream, however, when I implement some of these strategies, I hope that it makes for an even more productive classroom environment. With loads of new ideas and resources, hopefully I can build a better and stronger classroom environment, as I also empower myself in the process - with the knowledge to help me grow. It made for a busy stretch, but I think in the end, it's well worth the time spent invested into the course. By tomorrow, I will have submitted my last assignment, but the process itself is only beginning.
