Why you (and I) should never stop learning

by Dr Davis on November 30, 2008

Continued learning:

 Just as I want my students to be life-long learners, I also make sure that I am continually learning.  I took a Blackboard training course this summer.  This fall I completed the adjunct certification course at Lone Star: Kingwood.  I am presenting at several conferences in the spring and am looking forward to learning from the other presenters at those conferences.  And I have been doing focused reading on multimodal classes and the newest research in medieval literature, focusing on Judith.  In addition, I am writing a paper for publication on Gulliver’s Travels and am learning quite a bit through that as well.

Learning is a responsibility, a privilege, and a great deal of fun.  I want my students to realize that and have experienced it in my classroom.
