Phillip Adams states.."Unless you're willing to have a go, fail miserably, and have another go, success won't happen." I am sure that we have all gone through unsuccessful attempts at a task and feeling the great sigh of relief and "Ahhhhhhhh" at the end... Although I don't think we failed any of our courses, we "have another go" each time we register for the next set of courses. The success of our efforts will be when we put on our caps and gowns and cross over the stage to recieve that piece of paper that spells our SUCCESS!
In relation to learning and instruction, as educators, we would have to apply a variety of strategies and utilize different tools to meet the learning styles and needs of students in order to meet their academic goals. With persistence and tenacity, we would see some success of our students.
I really cannot believe graduation is just a few short months away! It will be a big feeling of "ahhhhhhhhhh" when that paper is placed into our hands!
ReplyDeleteP.S.--thanks for taking extra ashes for me! :)
Now I have another favorite quote! Love this one. "Ahhhhh" is right...and then "Zzzzzz" comes right after with a few snores! ;-) Then we wake up and have another go at something bigger! I'm proud to soon be walking across that stage with you guys!
ReplyDeleteI'm with everyone! I can't wait to graduate and give a big sigh of relief.
