Discussion Questions
-
Explain, in your own words, Dr. Black’s visual of a book in the middle of two Bibles. What is she illustrating with this visual?
-
In my perspective, the illustration depicts the Bible as both the origin and culmination of teachings. It serves as the cornerstone for commencing and concluding lessons. By anchoring my teachings in the Bible, I ensure their success.
-
Dr. Black is illustrating that everything must be anchored in, framed by and understood through the lens of God’s Word.
-
That all we teach should be surrounded by the scriptures in the Bible. We should be able to always circle around biblical scripture in what we teach.
-
Dr. Black is visualizing that with every instrument used to teach must be surrounded or snadwiched between God’s word and its truth.
-
Christian educators should found their worldview and faith in the Bible, and weave Biblical throughlines in the content materials. They should continue to learn and study God’s Word first and then the content materials.
-
What are some techniques you have used, or currently use, to encourage a growth mindset in yourself?
-
I’ve always liked to learn new things and to build on what I already know. Sometimes it’s a temptation to think I already have something mastered and don’t need to learn more, but the more I learn, the more I know I don’t know.
-
I am currently actively seeking God in prayer and His Word to better improve my relationship with Him, in addition I am researching different methods of integrating the Word in my lesson plans.
-
One technique I have used, and continue to use, to encourage a growth mindset is remembering that it’s okay to not have all the answers. There are limits to our knowledge and there is never an issue with having to take the time to do more research and continue learning. I also regularly journal to check in with myself, especially when I find myself engaging in negative self talk. I will take that negative self talk and rephrase it in a more positive way.
-
I’ve taken on the challenge of getting my masters in biblical apologetics.
-
Practical lessons/way to have a life and a classroom where literally everything is filtered through scripture.
-
What do you hope to gain from this course?
-
Practical insights on biblical worldview integration.
-
I hope to gain more knowledge on how to integrate the word into my lessons
-
I want to gain a more thorough understanding of how in integrate the bible and work toward developing the whole student
-
I need to gain more insight into how to integrate curriculum with Biblical views.
-
I am in a school setting where teachers are not allowed to integrate the word of God into the teaching and learning environment. So I hope to gain creative ways and new ideas for integrating God’s word into my lessons and the school community at large without breaking the law.
