So, I have experienced the Village Project on site once. With this I won’t have much to say just a few things. It was great when we first walked in. The kids came up to us asking our names and introducing themselves. As the day went on, we just played Legos and did coloring sheets. While getting to know the kids.

With the Ed talk videos it taught me a lot about different ways of people thinking and teaching with different scenarios. It would put you on the spot with a problem and how would you help it. Then when you got a thought you’d discuss it with a group or another individual and see the way they think. It taught me different ways to handle different situations. With also finding ways to think with other people or groups just not the same ones. While also learning about thinking about students and what could be going on in there at home lives.
When I think of Amercian Education I always think of public education because that’s all I grew up around with a private school here and there but not many. But before 1778 there was no thought of public education until Thomas Jefferson, a name I would never think of to be part of American education history unless you’re in a social studies class or U.S. history class, wrote up Bill 79, A bill which would start a comprehensive plan for public education. That bill would not pass until 1796 and was revised and retitled to be called “An Act to Establish Public Education,”.
