Session 5 - Levels of Functioning

Activity 5.2 - Typical Levels of Functioning

Look at the cartoon and think about the questions below.

  • What is happening here?
  • What does this cartoon say about education?
  • How does this cartoon apply to what you have learned about invitational education?
  • What level of functioning is this?

It is important to remember that all of us function at each level from time to time. However, it is the level at which we typically function that determines our approach to life and our success in personal and professional life.

Think about the following questions and record the answers in your blog.

  1. Can you think of times when you have functioned at each of the four levels?

  2. Can you think of times when others have functioned at each of the four levels in their interactions with you?

  3. At which level are you typically functioning, in your personal life and in your professional life?
