Personal Reflection

Unit 2 makes an educator reflect on their ability to teach their students.  In the world today, students and educators alike have many issues to overcome.  Students need to be in a safe, caring learning environment to have to capabilities to learn and teachers need a safe, resourceful place to educate.  I believe that most teachers are doing their best in and out of the classroom.  However, I believe that some teachers do not bring that type of energy and passion that students deserve to get, and this teachers either need to retire or find something different.  Another issue that unit 2 made me address is the zero tolerance policy.  I find that a zero tolerance policy is the way a school should address their behavior students.  Unit 2 made me look into issues that I deal with each today but need to find out more about our policies and what staff believes in some of these issues.
