WORKSHOP THREE 1. Complete the statements in the table found in MY EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY PROFILE. 2. Using Rhine’s chart of educational philosophies, write under Column A the philosophy which closely resembles each of your statements.
3. Review the answer in boxes under Column A. Determine which is the dominant educational philosophy and write it in the last box under Column A.
4. Exchange your paper with another participant. Peer will verify your self-rating and write the corresponding philosophy they see under Column B for each of the completed statements. Peer will also fill up the Dominant box at bottom of Column B.
How does your self-rating in A compare with the peer rating in B? If the ratings differ, what accounts for the variance?
“Without a vision to challenge followers with, there's no possibility of being a leader”.
