RE: Education culture that is inviting,safe..
Thank you, Frances Venn, for raising important aspects of a positive learning environment. If students feel fearful, harrassed, demeaned, isolated, or inferior, it's unlikely they'll be excited about learning. Would you? Teaching people of all ages to respect, honor and value each other, and to work together collaboratively should be essential components of any master plan for education. If respectful behavior is not consistently modeled by adults, young people will quickly detect and adapt to this hypocrisy. |
