If I had been in the instructor's position, I fear that I would not have handled the disciplinary issues quite as well, as I had not thought of all of the considerations mentioned by the instructor during the interview, especially the issue of the disruptive students' right and need to be educated and grow. An aide would have been of assistance in these scenarios, as they could remove the student from the public setting while going over rules and restoring discipline, but this is secondary to a proper consideration of the issues. I might have dropped different items from the week's curriculum, as well, but these changes would have been minor and largely unimportant. As far as moving ahead with tasks, I would have done just what the instructor did.
The rationales along which the above decision would have been-based is simply that these approaches appear to be the best choices and decisions that can be made in terms of keeping the classroom as a whole unified and on-track. The extra resource of an aide allows for disciplinary issues to be both less disruptive and less public, both of which assist the classroom as a whole and the disruptive students in their ability to remain on task, and to...
The time constraints that must be dealt with are, quite obviously, an issue of practicality that cannot be altered, and the only alternative to cutting certain activities at times is decreasing the amount of time spent on every activity (to allow for more time for including more activities), which would greatly diminish the quality of education and the usefulness of the learning activities altogether. The same logic applies to the need to move ahead with tasks even when a few individuals are still struggling to complete it -- the needs of the classroom, and even of these individual learners, include other tasks that are also essential to education, and limiting exposure to these activities provides a detriment rather than a benefit to the educational and developmental process.
Due to the public nature of the classroom, I had worried that parent micromanagement might be an issue, but when asked about this the instructor actually stressed that more parental involvement would be ideal. Difficulties balancing the immediate and the multidimensional needs of the classroom were acknowledged as a major complicating factor in the instructor's position, however.
3.4 Finally, I am interested in whether or not there is a trickle-down effect from leftist or rightist politics style at the provincial and federal levels. 1.3 Objectives 1.3.1 There are two major objectives for this research. The first is to compare the level of motivation among secondary school teachers under the Vancouver British Columbia School District in Canada by their socio-demographic and organizational factors. My hypothesis in advance of investigating this is
There are some papers that are to be released and referred to by her in the above article. In the first of those papers, the belief is that the present result of the aptitude tests of the teachers today is the same as was the case a generation earlier, but the best among them are not likely to become teachers. In the second paper, the result shows that the
Opening up to students is very important for teachers. While it is obviously not appropriate for a teacher to confide intimate personal details to the class, or gossip about others to try to be more accepted, there are ways that a teacher can seem more 'real' to the students. For example, crying over something very sad or letting the students know when the teacher is getting angry with their
Teacher Education in Nigeria: A Comparison with the United States There is no nation that can grow beyond the quality of its education (Lawal, 2003). A nation can only develop meaningfully and attain professionalism through a good teacher education program, which begins with the organization of teacher education and the resolving of its problems. The paper concerns itself with teacher education in Nigeria, comparing this nation's program with that of the
Some individuals are sensitive to how others perceive them, while others do not care. People who are high self-monitors continually view other individuals and what they do and how they respond to the actions and behavior of others. These people are therefore very self-conscious and want to look good; they will thus normally adapt to different social situations. To the contrary, low self-monitors are typically uncaring to how others
Disrupting by Imagining: Rethinking Early Childhood Research Early Childhood Research This research highlights four teachers who work in early childhood classrooms who have chosen to implement the use of video-observations of their teaching in conjunction with the reflective process. Each teacher profile will include discussions and interviews about their teaching and change implementation. The ideas for change will be based upon their own knowledge, skills, and dispositions along with evidence from the
