FNED has been an eye opener class, which I have learned a lot that allowed me expanded my horizons. This class informs former teacher what to be aware of while teaching as while as in today’s society. The expectations in the class are high, but beneficial. It requires many readings and reflections on the readings. Readings are important to read and reflect because they each teach something new, whether it be about racism, sexism, privilege, etc. Writing and class discussions are also helpful therefore you get other people’s ideas and opinions which also you to be able to see all sides of the issues. These readings will often be demonstrated in the classroom you tutor in, you’ll be able to relate readings with real life experiences.
As we would all like to think that America has become a non-discrimination place it unfortunately has not. Although over the years progress had been made to eliminate discrimination but equality still does not exist. FNED has affected my perspective on equality in today’s society. Before this I just saw discrimination between different races, sexes and sexuality. This class showed me that there are more levels of inequality, which allowed me notice them more and more in the media and everyday life. FNED gave me the knowledge to be aware of inequality that I have never noticed before.
I have learned a lot of beneficial aspects about teaching and will take everything I learned in this class into furthering my education studies.
