Welcome to the Broadbox Collective! As you may know Broadbox is a community of educational innovators who teach collegiate freshman and are trying to bob along in the current of life as a regular experience of change. We want to give you tools to bring versions of yourself to your educational environments that foster creativity, resourcefulness, courage, and practices in melding intuition with practicality.
To do that we first have to acknowledge that there are things that are out of our control as educators. The resources we have access to, the innovative spirit of our administrations, the emotional and experiential matter our students carry already in their heads.
Acknowledgment is a practice. Broadbox is named because sometimes education in the situations we are in is not something we have the support, capacity, or resources to think outside of. So we want to create a community that, rather than focusing on individual escape, is able to come together and find ways to work expansively within.
To warm us up today we have put together an Entrance Ticket. This Entrance Ticket to our session today is meant to illustrate the theme of this years focus. Perception and Purpose. The resources at our fingertips and the fingertips of our Freshman students are vast and overwhelming. The idea of personal connection to students is often cited as a valuable way to engage them in subject matter. Understanding how a student perceives your course can be a valuable tool in how you find a connection to them.
This Entrance Ticket will explore your perception of a question, how perception can be represented or elicited, and tie perception of purpose. The idea is these questions will move you through an experiential learning process that is a microcosm of enactive, symbolic, and iconic experiences with the topic at hand. Meant to illustrate in a small way how this can be done using the resources available as well as personal preferences, behaviors, and practices to create a personal experience with the subject matter.
