education learning philosophy

Description

For your final assignment, you will develop a statement of your philosophy of learning that conveys your vision of best practices in education. This assignment is an opportunity to reflect on multiple variables that have an impact upon learning and thus on teaching. You will make judgments about which concepts/variables to include and how to structure your own philosophical statement based on your context. This is a highly personal statement but should also reflect an informed position on what has been documented as best practices in the teaching-learning field with appropriate citations from the literature. In your paper, you will address the following questions: What should the purpose of today’s schools and/or informal learning venues be? What learning theories and perspectives would you find most beneficial to apply in your context? How would you address learner development and diverse learning needs? What are some best practices that engage the learner and demonstrate the process of thinking? How can safe and equitable learning communities be created?
