banking method of teaching

I do feel that my experience in student teaching has pushed me into becoming a more reliable person. Many times, during my student teaching, I was prompted by teachers to perform easy actions such as reading a book to a class or teaching a whole lesson or unit.

With that type of mentality, I dedicated myself to becoming anything that I teacher needed me to be. I face challenges at school in a more internalized way now. Instead of showing how freaked out I am, I swallow my fears and step up to perform what is asked of me. I do not always successfully complete what is asked for, but I do feel that this semester has made…

SEP #4 In my observation of a Kindergarten class, there were many different teaching methods used. The teacher used many visual aids, and example would be when she asked the students to draw a pig. She displayed a pig on the board that was drawn by a guest speaker, and the students were asked to replicate the drawing. The teacher I observed also used games to enhance the student’s learning. The games were not meant to be competitive, but simply there to help the students with thing such as…

The problems and solutions in the game teaching Game teaching is a kind of auxiliary means in order to realize the teaching goal, which suggests that not every class should design a game. Now the English classrooms focus on the fast pace and large capacity, only with precious 40 minutes, so teachers can’t causally spent limited time on the games. 4.1 The design of the game content and rules In some cases, teaching game is completely equivalent to the general game, which does not have auxiliary…

Hector’s passion for teaching is evident, by his outrage at the categorization of General Studies. It seems Hector believes all knowledge is specific and important, rather than a time-table filler. He quotes the poet A.E. Houseman ‘All knowledge is precious whether or not it serves the slightest human use.’ By quoting a poet, his affinity for literature becomes clear, and this starts to shape the audience’s view of Hector as a truly devoted teacher. Hector’s introduction also presents him as a…

swimming? • Have you ever felt like you were sinking? • What do you know about water? **Assessing students prior knowledge allows the teacher to decide if the lesson will teach within students zone of proximal development( Vygotsky).

Freire has a serious opinion and problem with how education is being taught. In Freire’s essay Pedagogy of the Oppressed, he mostly talks about and compares two specific concepts of teaching that he has witnessed. Those concepts are the banking and problem-posing. Sometimes while he explains the difference between the two the author can be a bit confusing and contradictive but for the most part you get the idea the he favors the problem-posing concept. Freire does a good job of vividly explain…

Within “The Banking Concept of Education”, Paulo Freire explains how students are suffering from not being able to extend their own knowledge. It only goes as far as filling student’s minds with information and expecting them to memorize everything or like said in Freire’s essay, “receiving and storing deposits” (216). Freire was considered as “one of the most radical educators around the world”. This idea of banking was developed in the 1970’s. Freire believes that education is suffering due to…
