TimeLine

Page history last edited by David Shutkin 13 years, 6 months ago

What are your beliefs about education?  What are the (multiple) sources of these beliefs? Trace your beliefs into the history, politics, philosophy, culture and psychology of education. 

 

Create a time line of events to document your questioning and accounting of your lived experiences, personal beliefs and assumptions about education. 

 

An event refers but is not limited to the following:

  1. Personal experiences as a student and/or as a teacher, from pre-school through college, significant to your formation as a subject of education;
  2. Historical, political, economic or cultural events that have lead to or are otherwise significant to your formation as a subject of education;
  3. Media events (popular culture such as music, television, and film) that have influenced or are otherwise significant to your formation as a subject of education;
  4. Theories and philosophies of education that inform or are otherwise significant to your formation as a subject of education.

 

Include in your time line formative events without which you would not be the suject of education that you are.  (Are you wondering what does Shutkin mean by "a subject of education"?  I hope so!  The answers to this question, your ability to answer this question, both, are significant goals of this course.  I invite you, initially, to recognize yourself as the subject of every "I" statement you make!  I am a subject of education; I am a professor at John Carroll University; I grew up in an affluent suburb of Milwaukee; I recall race riots from when I was a young child; As a child, I participated in the anti-war movement in the United States; I believe in place based learning, and so many more "I" statements...

 

You are invited to be as creative as you want with the layout and design of your time line. 

With my approval, I want to encourage you to work in any medium, digital, analogue, online or by hand.

 

Timetoast is a user friendly online interactive time line.   While it is just one option, it is one of the better online time line applications. I invite you to join Timetoast and start creating and sharing your own time lines, all you need is a valid email  address:  TimeToast:Create Timelines, Share them on the Web
