“Our Greatest Weaknesses” is a spoken-word recording in which 14 students identify and reveal a collection of their greatest “weaknesses”.

 

Through a self-reflective process, each student identified and wrote 7 “weaknesses” of their greatest weaknesses on slips of paper. The papers were then shuffled together and distributed anonymously amongst the group. One-by-one, each “weakness” was read aloud and recorded.

 

Students’ learned about how courageous, generous, resilient, and empathetic they truly are. Students’ realize that what we consider our “weaknesses” are the really the things that make us most human - and ultimately great.
