Here is a wonderful (first) blog post by Marcus Blair (@MrBlairsClass):
Teaching Ancient Greek Philosophy in a 21st Century Classroom
The lesson shared is on Stoicism for Grade 12 Philosophy, but there is a bigger lesson: Share your work!
I’m sure that to create this post Marcus had to reflect far more on his lesson than he had any time before writing. So, in the process of writing, he not only helps others, but helps himself too.
He made a fan out of me, but even if no one read the post, it still would have been a valuable exercise to write it. The fact that others like myself get to benefit as well is a positive by product of sharing work on a blog.
Keeping Derek Sivers idea of ‘Obvious to you, amazing to others‘:
I think one of the best professional development opportunities educators have is to share their work… so get blogging!
