CONVERSATION CAFE
Tuesday June 3rd from 2 to 3 pm in the Central Conference room
At the last Conversation Café, we covered topics related to Balance--balancing our personal lives with our professional workload, our personal philosophies, our teaching methodologies etc. Part of this conversation morphed into the question about balancing our desire to be a
specialist versus our commitment to teaching. So far, feedback suggested that we should pursue that topic in more depth.

For the next Conversation Cafe come prepared to debate the age old question: Are you a specialist in your content area first and foremost or teacher first? (back to the original question--what philosophy guides your behavior in the classroom?).
