There is evidence from a number of disciplines
to suggest some positive relationship between an individual’s beliefs, values,
or attitudes and the decisions and actions that make up one’s daily life. Psychological theories, though they differ,
often draw a correlation between beliefs, values and/or attitudes, and human
behavior. On the basis of such theories,
certain forms of treatment or therapy are proposed to help individuals change
undesirable, ineffective, and counterproductive behaviors through a process
that involves examining, clarifying, and perhaps changing what one believes. --Lorraine M. Zinn
Welcome to my portfolio!
In the infancy of its development, my portfolio will grow as I do. At this time, here is an abstract from my Philosophy of Education.
- It is my belief that people do what they know, and to do differently they must take actions to know differently. This becomes clearer as individuals enter adulthood, transformed from dependent teenagers to self-sufficient, working adults. Job requirements include adequate technical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal skills. As technology advances it becomes essential that adults participate in continued education and affective development to prepare themselves for the growing demand for critical and creative thinking. Self -awareness is the vital path to greatness.
