With advancements in technology, some students have chosen to complete their schoolwork through the Internet, rather than in traditional classrooms. Those who support a traditional classroom approach to learning argue that it provides more of an opportunity for students to interact with the teacher and other students. Those who feel that learning over the Internet is better argue that it allows students to learn anytime and anywhere they choose. Do you feel education is better provided in traditional classrooms or when offered over the Internet? Write an essay to be read by a classroom teacher in which you persuade the reader that either traditional classroom education or Internet-based learning is better.With advancements in technology, some students have chosen to complete their schoolwork through the Internet, rather than in traditional classrooms.
Also, I am someone who is involved in education and research and I think that it is amazing how learning to read is said to be a talent that it potentially impossible. Furthermore, it is very fascinating that the process of reading is actually a result of a tug-of-war between the material being read and the student, and hopefully there will be comprehension in the results from the material that is read. Additionally, the text maybe made up of phrases and characters in which will have a certain meaning. I have enjoyed this wonderful experience that I encountered while being in the classroom with wonderful students. I can honestly say that the teacher in the classroom did a great job with her students and I will be walking away with a bunch of awesome strategies and resources to take back to my own classroom to help with teaching reading and language arts.
In a school there are many other people to consider as your team rather than just the people you work with closely on a daily basis. Knowing and executing your role as an individual to the best of your ability allows you to be a valued member of any team. It is also essential to know the roles of those around you. This allows you to fully understand and support each other. By working as a team you can gain valuable knowledge from those who are more experienced than you, but it also allows you to suggest newer and fresher ways to approach learning.
The study also considered those who were able to motivate their students to learn and understand the material rather than just absorbing the information presented to them. The first chapter ends with the major conclusions regarding the behavior of successful teachers. These teachers know their subjects extremely well. They are active scholar, artists, or scientists. They are continuously updating their knowledge, doing research, have important and original thoughts relating their fields, and are interested in what other people do in the same fields.
Our world abounds with knowledge and wonders that amaze us. Some people pay a lot of dollars to gain knowledge; however, there are a variety of resources you can use to learn without empting you wallet. Knowledge can be easily perceived by watching T.V, surfing internet and communicating with friends. Watching T.V is a pleasurable tool for students to learn. For example, T.V has sounds and images that are great for visual learners.
That is until her thoughts were provoked about the navigate affects of technology in our education systems, with everything digital, what is the point of having a physical education center. Saltrick also points out that the internet leads us into a lost trail into the cyber world that is both traceable and time consuming. How technology has affected Education is both a positive and a negative. Teacher’s can use this tool to connect to other teacher’s to compare research, work together on projects over great distances, to assist each other in the academic world. Thus, technology is the logical step in the education world, as they have always shared information, technology just made the means faster.
Discussing cases in small group settings can be a huge benefit in that each person would bring varying perspectives, critiques and solutions to the table, increasing the knowledge of each teacher more than if they were to just complete individually. Once critiques are made upon a case and other people offer suggestions and opinions teachers will be much more capable and confident to reflect and critique their own classroom teaching. Teaching cases are for the greater good of all teachers; they need not be put down, but instead used for the edification of other teachers where they can bounce ideas off each other for greater understanding on how to deal with certain situations. Discussing cases will test the beliefs of everyone involved, broadening the minds of teachers and evaluating each perspective. Each person must be able to effectively communicate their views and reasons why they have certain beliefs.
These are differences in understanding, perception, attitudes, or preferred action. Yet one of the key advantages of working in groups and teams is the opportunity to capitalize on the multiple perspectives that group and team members have (Beebe & Masterson, 2006). An examination of the faculty profiles provided me with an indication that although there are some teachers with innovative ideas, many teachers carry a groupthink mentality. Groupthink is described as a means of deliberating what group members use when their desire for unanimity overrides their motivation to assess all available plans of action (West & Turner, 2004). Some student profiles created by faculty members contain information that could be called into question because of biases and stereotyping.
How do we become knowledge workers within our own organizations? Hammer (2004) suggests that we are entering an age where we will all be knowledge workers. I find some truth in that because we are always learning from our peers, our employees, and our supervisors. But it is necessary for us to know where that newfound knowledge comes from by finding its source. I am the type of person who wants to know everything and be the best at every task I perform, and doing the necessary work to identify the appropriate source of information will make that task just a bit easier.
Knowing others strengths in an online learning environment helps me understand how they think. When I receive feedback from others I will understand their method of thinking. Their experience helps me to think differently for myself. CONCULSION Remember, these resources can only be successful if practiced. These tools have helped me in my educational journey as of yet.
