what a deal
course goal:
- making you a better teacher is not the purpose of this course
- nor is it to make you a better science teacher
- the goal of the course is to make you a
- stark-ravingly,
- intellectually-interesting,
and
- overly-curious person
who will spend most of their life . . . not in the classroom.
before you can be a teacher . . .
or a science teacher . . .
you must be an interesting person.
'tis silly to think that if you can be the former . . .without being the latter
thus: ELE # 3290 is . . .
- a philosophy course
- a psychology course
- a genetic epistemology course
- a history course
- an environmental course: personal / social / science
- a science course
- a social foundations of education course
- a current events course
- a math course
- and even a science methods course.
just think! You get all of those rolled into one.
