  1. the Educational philosophy badge.
  2. Hello there. Today's adventure is about educational philosophy.
  3. Can you find someone who might be able to help?
  4. Maybe that
  5. Hi, my name is Kayla Hartley, and I'm a pre service teacher at Griffith University,
  6. and today I'll be sharing with you my educational
  7. philosophy so I can get my educational philosophy badge.
  8. My philosophy
  9. stems from my natural maternal instincts nurturing, caring, creativity,
  10. my quirky personality.
  11. My philosophy is that every student has an equal opportunity to a
  12. solid education that doesn't discriminate against diverse needs such as gender,
  13. race, faith, disability or culture.
  14. My philosophy is to take care of each and every one of my students
  15. pouring time,
  16. effort and resources into making sure that no student is left behind academically,
  17. socially, intellectually or mentally.
  18. My philosophy is to create a safe environment where my
  19. students can express their identity and experiment with social norms,
  20. gender socialisation and stereotypes,
  21. or being a child in a world that demands Children grow up too fast.
  22. There are two philosophers that have helped shape this philosophy.
  23. Those are Ken Robinson and Neal nodding.
  24. Ken Robinson's philosophy centres around creativity in education and defines
  25. creativity as ideas that are original and add value.
  26. Creativity is not limited to arts and can
  27. be found in many other disciplines of education,
  28. such as maths and science.
  29. Creativity not only helps engage students with content,
  30. it also helps them to connect with their communities.
  31. Cultures, beliefs, their identity and their individuality.
  32. Creativity is not just about smiles and laughter, but creating
  33. but creativity is taking risks, experimenting and testing boundaries of normal.
  34. I want to teach my students to think creatively in all aspects of their education.
  35. I want my students to experiment with solving
  36. mathematics equations in different ways to their peers.
  37. I also want my students
  38. to test the boundaries of gender stereotype within their play and art.
  39. I will encourage my students to connect to themselves and their identity,
  40. culture and faith to have a voice and use
  41. their creativity to make an impact in their worlds.
  42. A student learns differently,
  43. and I need to make sure that I am being creative with my pedagogy.
  44. I need to ensure that I have an array of different ways
  45. to teach content that suits all diverse needs within my classroom.
  46. I need to be conscious of those that struggle academically that
  47. have disabilities or struggle with language barriers and ensure that they,
  48. too, have an equal opportunity to achieve success within my classroom.
  49. The second philosopher that I take inspiration from is Nell nodding
  50. and her work in care ethics
  51. for the Foundation of a Care ethics nodding states that there is
  52. a clear difference between caring for and caring about a student.
  53. Caring for somebody is the foundation of care and by extension,
  54. caring about somebody will become present.
  55. I not only want to care for my students and their well being and safety,
  56. but I also want to care about my students whilst
  57. maintaining professionalism and the code of ethics for teaching.
  58. I want to create and establish a caring relationship between myself, my students
  59. and parents and caregivers.
  60. I want to be a teacher that
  61. they know cares about them,
  62. their cultures, their values, their beliefs, their faith and their identity
  63. and caring about my students.
  64. I want to be mindful of the content that I show my
  65. students so that I can be aware and maintain respect for them.
  66. I also want to be a teacher that cares
  67. about their home lives and cares about their parents
  68. for teachers is not just about students.
  69. It's also about involving and communicating with their
  70. parents and getting them involved in their students.
  71. Education.
  72. I understand that my te, as my teaching journey continues,
  73. my educational philosophy will change,
  74. adapt and grow as I participate in professional development and learning.
  75. My current philosophy already coincides with
  76. many of the Australian professional standards
  77. for teaching as well as the Queensland Teachers Code of Ethics.
  78. My educational philosophy links specifically to a PST s 1.13 to 1.6,
  79. as well as 4.14 point four and 4.3
  80. as well as this.
  81. It also aligns with the code of ethics Val of we demonstrate respect,
  82. we demonstrate justice and we demonstrate care
  83. by allowing my students to learn in a safe and caring environment.
  84. I hope to eliminate issues that may arise in
  85. the classroom about gender socialisation disrespect to cultures,
  86. beliefs or disabilities,
  87. as well as any bullying that may arise due to socioeconomic statuses.
  88. I want my students to feel comfortable expressing their identity,
  89. their cultures and beliefs, and to embrace their individuality, creativity,
  90. disabilities or struggles they may have
  91. in creating a safe and caring environment.
  92. I hope to achieve a space that allows students to better engage
  93. with content and to achieve anything they put their minds to.
  94. Well done. You've earned your educational philosophy badge
  95. goodbye
  96. and thank you.
