Week 3. Module #3: Economic Unit of One

Weekly Overview: July 7 - 13

You are your own business. You are your own personal brand. Today's fast paced and ever changing world demands individual attention to your assets--your passions, your vocation, and your external realities. To do this, we need to begin to think of ourselves as “economic units of one” (EU1) with the responsibility (and freedom) to constantly see ourselves as improving, investing in oneself, and growing. It is that moment in time when we as educators and our students see each day as an opportunity to “increase our marketability.” Not in just the financial sense but as learners, parents, humanitarians or whatever relevant purpose we have chosen.
