Reflection

7/8/2013

I am treating myself this summer to an entire week of Geek Camp, generously sponsored by Douglas County School District in Colorado. The schedule is structured to include a 3 hour block of time in the middle of the day, cleverly named Campfire, to sit with colleagues and process new learning. Just as we might enjoy sitting around a campfire in the summer and share our stories, ask questions, and have a lively discussion, this opportunity at Geek Camp provides time for teachers to talk, share and problem solve. My pleasure from participating in Campfire today reminded me that students need time to process their learning, too. One of my new goals for this week is to explore ways in which technology can support student reflection.

How do you encourage students to reflect? How do you manage the time it takes to reflect in a quality manner?

Buckle up, fellow empathizers, as we dive headfirst into a realm where understanding transcends the clichéd metaphor of walking in someone else's shoes.

Join me on this thrilling exploration where we'll unravel the mysteries of genuine connection, exposing the limitations of a simple stroll down someone else's path. Spoiler alert: Empathy is not about shoe sizes or swapping soles—it's an art, a dance, a symphony of shared emotions waiting to be uncovered. Ready for an empathetic odyssey that challenges the norm? Let's step into the extraordinary and discover why, in reality, I can't just walk a mile in your shoes.
