to recognise that children are individuals and as such will differ in expectation, motivation and learning styles which can be affected by factors such as culture, gender, family, peers and previous experiences. The teaching assistant supports the school and teachers to develop inclusion so that all children regardless of barriers can access the curriculum and enjoy a good learning experience. This may be achieved by providing ideas, materials and strategies, organizing and managing…

Perennialism Perennialism asserts certain principles that are foundational to its educational objectives. Among them are the following: (1) permanence is of a greater reality than change; (2) the universe is orderly and patterned; (3) the basic features of human nature reappear in each generation regardless of time or place; (4) human nature is universal in its essential characteristics; (5) like human nature, the basic goals of education are universal and timeless; (6) the human being's…

To be truly honest with you, I never really thought I would even graduate from high school. I essentially failed everything in 9th grade, due to family problems, I never showed up to my classes, I barely did anything that a student was supposed to do. Instead, I was working full time at the age of 14 turning 15 at Tim Hortons. Why? Because that was my way of surviving when I was left alone by my family. My father went to jail and my mother moved out to be with someone else, I had to keep working…

1. Introduction Conversations are often a part of my classroom teaching. I have used this to teach target language or to introduce functional language such as to interrupt, agree or disagree etc. This has always been something that is appreciated by my learners; however as a teacher this has never been done with conscious effort or to let students ‘express themselves’ per se or backed up by theoretical underpinning. I have chosen to focus on turn-taking in conversation for opinions hoping to…

Schools should be a place of safe learning not only for the students but for the teachers as well. There are many advantages of having security within our schools. One of the advantages of security in schools is that fewer incidents, suspensions and expulsions happen when schools have security measures in place (Wren, 2013). Another advantage of having security within our schools is being able to identify information prior to an attack, communities across the country can effectively establish…

My childhood was always based on learning. I always wanted to be a teacher and I would have my parents sit to teach them what I had learned in pre-school. Teachers loved how…

In Josef Mendoza's A Thematic Analysis of Self-Directed Learning, Mendoza, a Doctor of Education, discusses the creature's self-directed learning and its relation to modern education. Mendoza discusses the positive and negative implications that result from the creature's (abbreviated by F$) self-directed learning. Mendoza agrees with Malcom Knowles's premise that "the instructor's role as a learning 'facilitator'" is necessary for optimal learning (qtd. in Mendoza 37). Mendoza emphasizes…

discuss the fact that criticism of public schools has gradually increased since the 1970s. However, many should applaud school’s efforts due to the progress they have made in light of all the obstacles they encounter with students. One question raised is whether schools are meant to transform society or if the reverse is true. If the goal of education is to change societal norms, then schools have not been successful with reforms, but if society shapes schools, then educators have conformed…

that should be held in high respects. Even more terrifying for Prose, is the fact that Angelou’s work is commonly used as an example of “poetic” prose style, a fact that Prose is strongly against as Angelou’s work incorrectly uses certain aspects of grammar. Prose supposes that this would provide reasoning for the poorly written works that college freshman teachers are commonly confronted with, because students are looking towards the works of Angelou’s as models for what they should be writing.…
