Alan
Kennedy

 Has worked in education for 12 years. During that time, his opportunities allowed him to work in the United States, Nigeria, and China. He believes that learning is developmental and that learners with or without disabilities are capable of critical thinking and application. In his opinion, the goals of education are to prepare students with critical thinking skills for lifelong learning and to develop students who have practical knowledge and skills to solve problems outside of the classroom. In his class, he is keenly aware of the power dynamic between student and teacher.
