Education-Class

Teaching to Your Strengths

When we structure our classes around things we are good at, we believe the classes go much smoother.  For example, someone might excel at leading impromptu class discussions, so a more flexible syllabus would work well for them.  Whereas someone else may be a master at creating interesting and detailed assignments, so she thrives on having a set syllabus.  

We will spend the first third of the FLC exploring our strengths, perhaps by interviewing others or completing the CliftonStrengths Assessment.  For the middle third we will brainstorm how we might apply our strengths to the classroom. Finally, in the last third we will work to match our syllabi to our strengths.
