A long time ago in a distant land, a lost student sat down to ponder. He realized that his thoughts and ideas had left him and he was indeed lost. He felt that he had no direction and could barely remember his purpose in education. While he stilled recognized that he had a great passion for teaching and learning, the exact focus seemed to be lacking. A mental block had occurred and the result had been stagnation and a deficiency in his production. Now, after weeks of inactivity, a chance meeting with a trusted advisor has sparked some renewed interest.
I think that the biggest issue may be that I am not totally sold on the concept being presented or the post-secondary system in general. I feel that the system is failing our students yet no one seems to want to take ownership of the problems. Again, these are my opinions, but I have had the advantage of being involved in post-secondary education in various capacities for the past 8 years. I am not sure what it all means but I hope I can figure it out soon...
