Subjects Matter: Chapter 11 [What Teachers Make]
What are teachers if they don't teach?
Students are not all created equal, but as teachers we are tasked with providing a series of resources, strategies, and motivation to allow them to get to that point in their academic careers where they can say "I can do this." And, in my opinion, the situation that should happen in order to coach the students toward this self-awareness and independence must begin with us under the single notion and assumption that "we must build the practice before it can be put to good use."
