Assignment task:
Read the articles under the "Education" module. Then: think about them. Absorb them. Let them sink in. Maybe read them again!
Whose responsibility is your education? Yours, or the teacher's? And why?
Do you agree with Parsons? How do you feel about his line, "My job is to lead you to the fountain of knowledge. Whether you drink deeply or only gargle is entirely up to you"? Do you agree or disagree with him?
Does Martineau raise any good points in her response?
And what about Kailyn White? How do you feel when she says, "I want a professor who is going to apply what he or she has learned in life in order to make me believe in what is being taught, to make me want to do exactly what the professor is saying"? Do you agree? Is it the teacher's responsibility to motivate students in this way? Why or why not?
Does Kesler raise any good points in his response?
There are no right or wrong answers. Just prove to me that you did the reading, and that you thought about the topic.
