Week 3: " Art of Possibility" 5-8


In reading the chapters, Leading from Any Chair – Chapter 5 stood out most for me.  I reflected on my teaching experiences. Like the conductor of an orchestra, who says nothing, but directs with such an art, beautiful music is the outcome. This is the dream Educators desire to have. Give students the guidance and the belief in their own capabilities. Believe your students can! So many Educators lead and lecture instead of being the facilitator. The students are left without a chance to lead, little motivation or creativity. Educators should give the necessary information to the student, and then allow the student take an active part in learning. Give students opportunities to lead each other.   Let the student invest in his/her education or should I say lead from any chair. Allow students to enjoy learning – to be the possibility.
