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?
-
She is illustrating the importance of approaching Christian education through a Biblical lens. Everything thing we do in the classroom should be a reflection and an outgrowth of that lens.
-
Dr. Black starts and finishes with Gods word. The integration of the curriculum use in our schools is based in Biblical integration.
-
Dr. Black is demonstrating that God’s Word should go before and after our lessons, surrounding them, and that everything should be viewed and taught through the lens of Biblical truth.
-
We begin and end with the Bible. Everything in the middle is through the lens of the Bible as well.
-
God’s Word should surround our lessons.
-
What are some techniques you have used, or currently use, to encourage a growth mindset in yourself?
-
Whenever I think of the bible passage that says, ”Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.” Genesis 1:26-27. That makes me to want to study more about what I am learning, for if day by day there are new inventions, and yet man have not yet scratch what God has in store for him. That makes want to learn every day.
-
I love to learn, even if I don’t agree with or enjoy the topic, I believe we can still learn and grow from it. Topics that challenge us help us to grow and to see where others are coming from. I try to always be learning and I try to pass that onto my students.
-
I have several colleagues that are also working on their master’s degree. We encourage each other by meeting up to discuss what we have found interesting in what we are learning. This causes us to look forward to what we are studying and seek out more knowledge instead of just pushing through to get the grade.
-
I view myself as a lifelong learner. I think the joy of loving to learn and viewing challenges as an opportunity for growth is important for maintaining a growth mindset and also for modeling one.
-
Always reading, learning and growing in areas of faith and professionalism with regards to being a teacher.
