Welcome to Class!

Hello everyone -- welcome to class! Thank you for your flexibility this week as I return from vacation. Your "reflection" this week (yes, worth points) is to introduce yourself. Write as much or as little as you would like me and your other classmates to know. Some things I would like to know specifically are: 1. Your name. (Just first is fine -- this blog is public.) 2. Whether or not you are currently teaching. If you are, what subject and grade. 3. Why you want to be a teacher. 4. At least one fun fact about yourself. 5. Anything else you would like to tell us!   A little bit about me: I am Professor Lorenzetti, and I am currently teaching graduates and undergraduates at some of the CUNY schools here in New York City. I have held various teaching positions in the past decade and a half, primarily in arts education. I am working on my pilot project for my dissertation, and this is my favorite class to teach. I have an amazing one-eyed cat named Henry, and I am a voracious reader in my spare time. I am looking forward to meeting you all!

Attachment Theory

Hello, 720/730 students!

Below, please post your response to the assigned Cassidy article on Attachment Theory. I am looking for clear evidence that you have read the article and that you have formed a well-thought-out argument. You may also pose questions and find connections in your own life and work to the theory. I expect that your reflection will be a minimum of two paragraphs.

In addition, you will be expected to come back and reply to at least one reflection in a thoughtful, clear manner.

You may also find this video interesting; it's an example of the strange situation experiment discussed in the article.
