Lesson 3 : Principles of Teaching and Learning Flashcards
A system of operations that needs careful organization and should Include:
Planning
Revision
Assessment
Implementation
Setting goals for teaching, from the scale of an entire semester (syllabus) to a single class (lesson plan).
Planning
Revising your pedagogy will help your students learn… and keep you interested. If you keep your focus on student learning, you will find a richer meaning to the typical lecture/discussion/test/grade process.
Revision
Actively and regularly assess what your students have learned.
Assessment
A teacher must implement these plans, and try new ideas. This can help improve teaching skills.
Implementation
Teachers should not be ___________ students in such a way that the students become ___________ and _________ on the teacher.
spoon-feeding
dependent
reliant
The classroom is the stage of ___________ for all people. It is where learning begins, and where the mind is cultivated
development
Requires teachers to make the most out of a given situation. A dominant role may be assumed, and other times, there is minimal interference on his student’s learning or possibly no interference at all.
Teaching as an adjustive act
Described this adjustive act of the teacher
Fred Stocking
Made different suggestion as to what the adjustive role of the teacher is.
Mario Fantine
Learner-directed and controlled.
Learner has complete freedom over his own education.
Free
Opening of school and its
resources for the community, with a non-competitive environment and an education system viewed as social system than the course of studies. More learner-centered.
Free-Open
Learner has the freedom tochoose from a variety of content areasgiven approval by the teacher, parent,and students. Resource centers for skillareas made available to the learner.
Open
Teacher-studentplanning or teacher-centered planning
Open-Modified
Competitiveenvironment, with school as themajor instructional setting. Subject-matter centered.
Modified-Standard
Learner adheres to institutionrequirements as prescribed: what is to be taught, how, when, where, and with whom. Teacher is the instructor and the evaluator. Passing and failing based on normative standards of education.
Standard
Teaching as providing the learner with basic tools of learning
Young people can learn most readily about things that are tangible and directly accessible to their senses—____________, _________, _________ and _________
give the sample of tools
visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic.
Chalkboard
Flipcharts
Overhead projector
Films and videotapes
Computers and multimedia
The teacher helps people to gain values and attitudes they need to be responsible citizens, to earn a living, and lead a useful, rewarding life. Also it provides the means of passing knowledge on to the next generation.
Teaching as inherently a humane activity
The teacher must synthesize specific elements like purposes/objectives, subject content, and also provide instructional materials such as visual aids and other learning facilities. The learning environment should be prepared and set-up so learning can occur.
Teaching as structuring the learning environment
Described It as a dimension of effective teaching, and a process through which an effective classroom environment is created.
Good and Brophy
It focuses on student behavior, especially discipline problems, and deals with issues of low learning motivation and poor self-esteem
Campbell
It refers broadly to all activities that teachers carry out in the classroom. It aims to promote student involvement and cooperation.
Sanford
It emphasizes the education value of promoting the growth of students. Its focus is also on proactive and developmental classroom practices rather than those with negative features of control and punishment.
McCaslin and Good
Teaching as an inquiry process
In this regard, teaching is a process of ___________ some of the student’s ideas so that he can learn to think and answer challenges for himself. Through effective teacher questioning, the student can ____________.
questioning
improve his intellectual potency
__________ recognized the importance of developing the learner’s intellect by subjecting him to a series of thought-provoking questions.
Socrates
It begins with the desire to discover. Meaningful questions are inspired by genuine curiosity about real-world experiences.
Ask
At this stage the learner begins to gather information: researching resources, studying, crafting an experiment, observing, or interviewing, to name a few.
Investigate
The learner begins to make connections from the information gathered in the investigation stage. The ability at this stage to synthesize meaning is the creative spark that forms all new knowledge.
Create
At this point learners share their new ideas with others. The learner begins to ask others about their own experiences and investigations.
Discuss
______________ is taking the time to look back at the question.
Reflection
Phases in teaching as an activity
- Curriculum-planning phase
- Instructing Phase
- Evaluating Phase
Helping to formulate the goals of education: selecting content and stating objectives.
Curriculum-planning phase
Creating intentions regarding instructional strategies and tactics.
Instructing Phase
Evaluating the appropriateness of objectives of instruction, and the validity and reliability of the devices used to measure learning
Evaluating Phase
Emphasized the cognitive and the psychomotor aspects of learning or simply the subject into the learners’ level of awareness
Teaching as a science
Presupposes the need for the learners to appreciate and improve on whatever knowledge he has gained and skills he has acquired.
Teaching as an art
“Teaching draws its basic principles and procedures from many sources, but chiefly from psychology, sociology, philosophy, and of course, pedagogy and educational history.”
Nerbovig and Klausmeier
Singled out psychology as the most significant discipline from which the essence of teaching is derived. Thus he defined teaching as “stimulation, guidance, direction, or encouragement of learning.”
- William Burton
Suggested that “Teachers need to know how children learn, and how they depend on motivation, readiness, and reinforcement. But they similarly need to know how to teach-how to motivate pupils, assess their readiness, act on the assessment, present the subject, maintain discipline, and shape a cognitive structure”.
Gage
Teaching is defined as the transmission of knowledge for the maintenance of social order. It is the process by which an individual learns to conform to the norms of his social group.
Sociological perspective
Teaching derives its goals and priorities: on pedagogy, its methodology and procedures; and on educational history, its beginning, present courses of action, and directions.
