It is difficult for me to talk about my teaching philosophy without talking about my personal theology. Not that I bring my faith explicitly into the classroom. Just that I think my faith informs who I am and how I behave. If you are reading this essay for "tips on how to be an award-winning teacher," please be clear: I am not saying that a prerequisite is being a person of faith. But in these "reflections along the way," faith is part of what makes Marty tick as a teacher.  I believe we are all loved children of God. I believe that there are no privileges or handicaps that come with birth into one family or one gender or one race or one sexual orientation. I believe the Golden Rule -- do unto others as you would have them do unto you -- is a useful guide for behavior. I believe that we are all striving to become the people our Creator created us to be.

  This is a little gem I found in my Google search. Ten years old now but it is no less true today. Another one that would be useful to let other teachers see for the purposes of support and encouragement.

I had to learn to work with a community, and I had to serve the needs of members of that community (both students and faculty) who did not share my values, my learning style or my intellectual background.

  I found this article with just a search for "reflections on teaching" at google. It caught my eye because of the first line about a "self-centered outlook." This was similar to the Harris article. But, this line brought up a new dimension.

If the students bring themselves to the classroom, then they're ready to learn.

  As I read further, I see that this author has much passion and opinion but not enough experience to see the problematic end that some of suggestions will inevitably find. Imagine if 7-12 grade students only went to school because they wanted to. I am certain that all of us have to be made to do things that are good for us or good for the community around us because our natural inclination will lead us into harm.

  I wonder how much harder it was for people in past generations to go through the decision making process of leaving home to move to another area, realizing that they may never see loved ones again. In some regard then, modern information technology makes is easier to move away, because we can justify the move with, "oh well, we can stay connected via email and skpe, etc." Just a thought. scot
