Topic > Review of article on student self-esteem and school...
There was nothing in the reading that I disagreed with, especially since so much of what was presented was data and not opinion, but when the article dared to speculate or present a point of view on self-worth, I pretty much agreed with everything that was said. I have learned that many students tend to derive their self-esteem, self-respect, and moral values from the modeled behavior of the adults around them. We can improve self-esteem simply by acting in a way that promotes it. I had never realized before how closely children observe adults or how important it is to show as well as tell. Some people will learn from the words you say, but many people will learn from yours
