Resolution in Education

"Tell me and I will forget.

                    Show me and I may not remember.

                                       Involve me and I will understand."

                                                                      author unknown

Personal Inquiry

  1. In your opinion, do you think it is fair to have your intellect and ability assessed on your answers to questions that contain information you have not been taught in school or have been exposed to in your life experiences?

  2. What impact(s) do you think receiving ‘labels’ (i.e. outside perspectives of your identity) would have on you? Consider how your own concept of self-identity could be impacted and how others may perceive you through those labels.

                                                     you cannot discover new horizons,
                                            if you are afraid of losing sight of the shore.”
