Philosophy: Pragmatism
1) I want the students to be active learners and use
participation, ask any questions they have throughout the presentation.
2) Students should have the knowledge and skills about global
food waste in their daily lives.
3)Pragmatists believe that children should learn how to make
difficult decisions by considering the consequences their actions might have on
others; students should realize the effect of their food waste and how it does
hurt a lot of people at the end of the day
How I Intend To Teach
I am going to start off my presentation with this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAFO2TKsRaI
because it is informative and in my opinion a dramatic yet important way to
start the presentation. I plan on making a PowerPoint filled with a lot of
facts, charts, and important information. The information will include what is
the solution, what is the cause, and what is global food waste. I want to
discuss what is happening today, how this is connected to world hunger, and
possibly discuss my concept map. At the end of the presentation I want to go
around the room and have each person proclaim what THEY can do to stop
themselves from wasting food personal, whether this is at home or at school.
