This lecture again was very important.
\n
\n Coming into my placement, I was aware that the area I was working in had a number of different number of cultural backgrounds. Stepping into the classroom I immediately noticed the broad range of cultures represented in the classroom. This made it quite challenging in ceratin subjects. One area thatwas particularly challenging was the topic on' discovering Australia'.Trying to introduce the topic became quite challenging, however by the end I was able to learn about some differnt cultures and make similarities and differences between some different cultures.
\n
\nThis lecture taught me some differnt ideas to think about when I WAS teaching and why I need to be aware of them.

This was a very powerful lecture and one which really made me walk out of the lecture thinking that she is right.

\nWhile i have waited until after my practical placement to write my discussion in regards to this lecture in particular, I really admired what she said and took that on board. Within the first two days of my placement I took it upon myself to memorise everyone's name and the students loved that. They loved having me around and their attitute changed towards a "stranger" entering their classroom. They loved the idea that I knew their names and that I would not dare categorise them in regards to learning abilities or behaviour.
\n
\nThis was definately a lecture that will stay with me for a very long time.
