Class Update: 4/14/11

Today in SPED 200 we talked about the documentary Finland Phenomenon and then discussed important key points as to how Finland teachers and their education system is different from the United States. We talked about some key differences and discussed if we thought they would work in the U.S.

Group 7 gave their presentation on chapter ten from the text Introduction to Teaching. Chapter 10 was titled School Law: Ethical and Legal Influences on Teaching. This was a very interesting chapter because it pertained to the laws and ethics of teachers, an area we need to know as future teachers. Group 7 ran out of time to finish their presentation, so they will finish it on Tuesday.
