Reflection #1

Reflection #1

We have been discussing the historical events and eras that have shaped the course of education throughout history. Reflect on an event in your life that has shaped the course of your life with relation to education. It could be an event that affected your course as a student, your decision to enter the education field or your ideals as a future teacher. Include the event, at what age the event occurred and the manner in which it affected you.
