What is my pedagogy?

Hey,

Pedagogy is a word that is most used in the educational field, but I feel that we all have our own pedagogy because we are teach others and we also learn from each other. Pedagogy comes from Greek roots, and it is basically the art of teaching children to the best of your abilities. Teachers exercise their pedagogy through context, and finding different ways to incorporate in their lessons when you are teaching children. They understand that not every child will grasp information at the same pace nor the same way, that is why it is important for teachers to really plan their lesson plans wisely with the intent that they will not stop until every student understand what is being taught to them.

Recently, I saw a TED video with Sir Ken Robinson, and in the video he had some really good valid points about the state of education, and what needs to be done to improve it. TED events are where educators go and talk to people about how they feel the educational system is going, and who better to know that then actual educators. One aspect he touched on was the idea that schools strip students of their creativity. This is true because there have been less programs within schools that offer different forms of art.
