I came across a list of personal qualities not measured by tests on the blog Brown Chicken Brown Cow. I read over the list and thought to myself... "I get to see these qualities in my class all the time!". My students show their empathy, their creativity, and their humour during our interactive, student lead classes. Through experiences, I, as a teacher, get to witness the endurance, self-awareness, and reliability each of my students possess. How lucky am I to have the opportunity, as an educator, to see these less concrete qualities that, really, constitute what people are and show how they shine as human beings? Home economics is the study of everyday life and these qualities are a lot of what makes everyday life fun and curious and exciting. I love my job. The above list is a screen shot taken on February 6, 2015 from http://katykelley.tumblr.com/post/108739352914/personal-qualities-not-measure-by-tests.
