Humility

Being able to respond to the needs of the situation without concern for one's own importance.

Dimension Relating — Caring for Others and the World

For me

  • How much do I talk in a lesson, how much does the class?
  • When did I last prefer a student's idea to my own?

For my class

  • When does it matter more that the group moves on than that you are right?
  • What can others do better than you – and how does that feel?

In the classroom

  • Silent discussion on paper: every voice gets the same amount of space.
  • Rotate roles in group work, including the inconspicuous ones.

Listening without answering

In pairs: one person talks for two minutes, the other only listens – no comment, no advice. Then swap. How was it?
