TRIPLE III TIME: Progressive “HOMEWORK”

IMG_2090
This last week one of my current American Government
&Politics class members submitted a weekly Position Paper entitled:  Homework Does NOT Increase Learning.  Well I decided quickly she was a top candidate for making it a class presentation/discussion topic.  And it was very evident that she was proud of her topic selection and even prouder of her opportunity to share her thoughts and “Position” on the homework issue.

As you can guess, the rest of the class voted unanimously in favor of her idea to eliminate homework for students in all grades.  But you will also not be surprised that when I cast my vote…I included a statement that I thought it was a very short-sighted, creativity limiting and professional-growth delaying concept.  The resulting class discussion was very good!  And in the end I truly believe that everyone understand that dependent on one’s approach…Progressive “HOMEWORK” could be a better mindset.  So to correctly continue this important re-learning opportunity…this week’s TRIPLE III TIME message is kind of a reminder that homework…Progressive HOMEWORK” can and should be a continuous improvement component of every workplace.

Think about it.

If you want to stay “up with the times” research homework may be a suitable responsibility.  Or if you are looking at new/different hi-tech ways of changing your business/agency marketing…Progressive HOMEWORKon what is most effective might be timely.  Or if you need to upgrade your professional credentials…to possible apply for a new/different job…Progressive HOMEWORKwould be a natural action to build your new life/work plan!

Maybe we all don’t think about daily life/work challenges and the Progressive HOMEWORK that we complete to improve?!  But if not before…today please be proud of and take credit for the professional advancements you achieve based on the Progressive HOMEWORK you complete everyday…EVERYDAY!
