Education homework help

The topic for this week focused on unpacking the meaning of “good teaching.”  Too often, in the education discourse, the rhetoric on good teaching centers on subject matter and students’ performance on summative assessments.  While these factors are important, it is also important for educators to make a commitment or investment on creating teaching spaces “that respects and uses the reality, history, and perspectives of students as an integral part of educational practice (Bartolome, 1994 p. 173). ”  There are a few slight changes for the assignment this week. Your assignments for this week are the following:
