Appropriate Behavior Expectations Case Study Cindy Dean Instructor: Kristen Jaquez June 1, 2014 Appropriate Behavior Expectations Case Study There are some teachers that have special prospects for their students. One example is to follow directions in the classroom or anywhere. A teacher may tell a student to take a seat or even get in line; it is predictable for them to follow the rules. A teacher should not ever place hard problematic situations on their students, especially young children. You really cannot imagine children who range the age of seven thru eight to grasp the information as teenagers can do.
If we go and show bad attitude and show that we are negative to certain people around them. Then we could make children to be the same way, which is not a good example to them as young children don’t know the differences between right and wrong. As a teaching assistant it is my duty and responsibility to respect the children with there needs and accept them for who they are. The way I can do this is if I think about my own beliefs and opinions so I can learn not to judge others on the basis of their race, gender or religion etc. In my line
These standards need to be able to fit in all schools and some may have to be tailored, to the fact that each state is different (Rutherford, David. J., & Boehn, Richard. G. (Nov. – Dec. 2004)). Social Studies education is well defined through standards and assessments, but will the teachers be able to align with them. Even though the standards are in place, it is almost impossible to get through the whole institution process and they are also constrained by the high-stakes tests (Miso, Thomas., & Patterson, Nancy., & Dopen,
To the children, school is their way of life in the village. While in classrooms they have a routine and a teacher to uphold this day to day order. Because of this structure, the students have very strict lives which must be followed, otherwise there is punishment. While no forms of chastisement are described in the story, one can deduce that not following the rules in school can lead to an undesired consequence. Yet without school rules being constantly pushed onto the children, there is no clear concept of punishment of any kind for an action.
• Questions may be interpreted by respondents in ways the researcher did not foresee or intend. In relation to question: Advantages: - Teachers much less likely to disguise their true feelings in order to protect their professional image (Item B). - Anonymity in this kind of research is important because of the sensitiveness of the topic, questionnaires allow this. - Quick and easy, people do not have to put in much effort or allow someone to ‘get to know them’ at a more personal level, thus more people are likely to take part in the research, increasing the overall reliability. Disadvantages - The data collected is not qualitative, whereas the issue at hand really needs a qualitative response.
No one method will be suitable for all learners and all situations and the person responsible for the students learning must be prepared to be adaptable and use different methods in order to establish appropriate behaviour and an all inclusive environment in which to learn. Ground rules are necessary in all learning environments either express or implied. James Atherton (2009) believes that ground rules are the minimum necessary to enable learning to take place in the class. He goes onto to suggest that a teacher should know what they want in the list of ground rules before they start. He asks the question of teachers, if they don’t know what ground rules they want how will the students?
Explain Moral Relativism Moral Relativism argues the claim that there are no universally valid rules for all people at all times, thus implying there are no intrinsic rights and wrongs. This results in Morality being relative to the individual, to their culture and their age group. In contrary Moral Absolutism is the antonym to the theory that morality is relative. Kant for example was not a moral relativist; he held the belief that we had ‘categorical imperatives’ which were always right. He believed as Absolutists believe today , we should be able to apply moral rules to everyone without making allowances for different people or circumstance , thus suggesting laws should be ‘universalisable’ .
The integrating function makes children as parallel as possible. The diagnostic and directive functions determines every “student’s proper social role” with a cumulative record or permanent record. The differentiating function is how children are trained in their area of intelligence that was determined by the diagnostic and directed function but they are in no means provided with the training and knowledge to be anything more than conventional. The selective function follows the ideas of Darwin’s theory closely as it supports the idea of natural selection. It is for the purpose of labeling peers and deciphering which children are inferior, it is the social aspect of schooling.
Working towards our moral sensibilities will reflect the fact that there is no distinction between dutiful acts and supererogatory acts. Supererogatory acts are something that is nice to do for others yet we are not obligated to do
The connection between critical thinking and ethics is that there are no general hard and fast rules regarding the application of ethics in various situations, which is especially pertinent considering the fact that what may be ethical in one situation may be considered unethical in another context. I use my reasoning skills (rationality) to determine both the universal rules that each person should follow (autonomy)and the process that will assure fairness and justice for all in the community. My blind spot my belief that motive justifies method or overconfidence in process. I believe that a consistent process results in a just outcome for all, I sometimes trust the process too much. Ethics plays a very important role in a professional setting.
