Week 4 Reflection

I really enjoyed this weeks video and reading assignment. The videos expanded on the fundamentals of teaching. Something that I haven’t been exposed too since I am not in the classroom. The video interview talked about social and emotional learning. I found this very interesting. From my job and view point I always heard about the problems teaching to economic disadvantaged but never social and emotional. Couple videos talked about project base learning. As I have heard this before and been to several presentations promoting they style of learning, I found this to be interesting but difficult to implement. I would think the entire state would have to change its testing policy in order for all Texas districts to convert to this teaching style. As I go through this course I get more understand on how tough it is to be a teacher with today’s students.
