I just got done with my second class of the semester (i.e. the second week of teaching Personality). I was struck by how great the students were. I taught at a state school last semester and it was an overall positive experience, but these students just bring a little extra something to class. Additionally it was good to have prayer in class again. Hearing students pray for you as a teacher really helps me put my duty to be a good teacher before God in perspective and I have to confess, that makes class go so much better.
Today we talked about categories of personality theory in general. I gave them all some modeling clay and some seeds and they discussed each as a metaphor for personality in their groups then shared some really profound stuff in our class discussion. They also made really cute figures with the clay! I guess even college students like to play with clay from time to time.
