Learning by teaching

Virtual Field Experience Summary Out of all the videos I have seen in Dr. Craig class, I find Mr. Bedley teaching methods to be the most effective for students to learn.

About 39% of teachers want a different job and 45% are dissatisfied with their current job. With these numbers in mind, we should be worried about who is going to be teaching your child. Teachers are entering the workforce only to leave a short time after. New teachers should have the focus and passion to stay in the field they studied for. In order to insure future candidates for education remain in education, they should go into a mentorship before they get to college. This epidemic has…

students have great parents and suffer from a psychological disorder, I find the general case less than great patenting. These kids are incredibly anger and often direct it where they can, to include teachers and other students who mean them no harm. Teaching these kids involves being a role model and making these children happy while not letting them get out of control. Hardest part I found would was giving positive attention to the kid who just tried to punch you or have been making your day…

High and meaningful interactions are considered to be essential in enhancing the effectiveness of a teaching method (Karpicke, 2012, p. 404-405). The guided practice in explicit instruction gives an opportunity to assess the effectiveness of the lesson. On the basis of this assessment, teachers can reinforce individual students with additional examples…

The Significance of Flipped Classrooms In this paper, I will argue that flipped classrooms are beneficial and should be incorporated into all schools today. This is a controversial topic in education today. The more this method of teaching is incorporated into the classroom more questions that arise from individuals who disagree with the method.

Every teacher has a unique teaching strategies that makes their classroom unique. What many people do not know, however, is that the methods and strategies that teachers use can all be traced back to the five teaching philosophies. These philosophies, perennialism, progressivism, essentialism, reconstructionism, and existentialism, are either teacher or student based, and can greatly shape the way an individual teaches (Powell, 2015). Each philosophy differs on what should be taught, how it…

Dalcroze Eurhythmics is the principles and method of instruction to music learning created by the Swiss composer and educator Emile Jaques-Dalcroze. Dalcroze Eurhythmics brings into use for the first time musical ideas through physical activities before the students learn what it looks like on paper. This sequence renders elevated body consciousness and a union of rhythm with a physical experience for the student, by making stronger concepts kinesthetically. To completely understand the ideas…

Coaching. Begin typing here. Collaboration. Carroll (2014) viewed collaboration as an essential contributor to a school’s culture and a means to transform schools into learning organizations. School leadership is required to support planned, ongoing collaboration. District leadership, by providing job-embedded professional development and “fostering collaboration around instructional improvement” (p. 8), can help building leaders establish a collaborative school climate. This is one of the few…

When I become a teacher I plan on teaching 3rd and 4th grade if I’m lucky! 3rd and 4th grade students are probably more tech savvy than I will be and by the time I become a teacher technology is going to be a huge part of education whether I want it to or not.

When I think of technology, I instantly think of…
