1. What? – Though out chapter 7, it discusses how students are continually trying to add and modify their understandings of their physical and social environment. This is due to the fact that students must create their own views of the physical and social world. Students work together with pears family and teachers to help make better sense of things that are puzzling in their environment. No matter how students gather their information weather it be on their own with the help of others, they develop unique interpretations of the environment around them. Constructivism and Misconceptions were main points of class today. Constructivism is learning as an active process in which learner construct their own meaning based on prior knowledge and experiences.  

2. So What? – Misconceptions I through was a very good topic to talk about because we will deal with a lot over the years as teacher. I have plenty and I am sure I will spend them in my teaching unless some one corrects me. This goes back to my point that knowledge never hurt if it true knowledge. So that is why I love to learn about new things and listen to people talk because it gives me something new to think about. Although I may disagree with what they are saying I like to know other people views on things. 

3. Now What? – I hope to clear any misconceptions my student may have and if I by chance pass some on then I apologize in advance even though misconceptions can be good. I will try to use the 5 E’s in my class because I feel it would be an effective way to teach some topics in my classes. I know that inside of me there is a great teacher but to get the best out of me I will need to fail sometimes so I can find what works and what does not. I need to keep an opened mind and take some suggestions of my peers.
