It is important that coaches understand what values they wish to instill in their athletes. What types of characteristics and skills does the coach want the athlete to posses when they leave the program? To me the value of coaching young athletes is extremely rewarding. The opportunity for me to give to these athletes what all my coaches gave
By being familiar with the philosophies of education has helped the pre-service identify with and the ones that correlates with the per-service principles are behaviorism, essentialism, and progressivism. Foremost is the essentialism which is grounded in the former school design that acknowledges the political, social structure, and trade and industry of native society (Martin, 1995). Based on the traditional native excellence as value for loyalty to duty, anxiety for others, common sense, influence, and determination is the principle of essentialists for educator (Sadker & Sadker, 1994). Traditional disciplines are taught in such subjects like science, language, math, and history the key to those subjects is the groundwork of the syllabus in the classroom. According to knowledge received through assignments and personal interviews the pre-service
I have chosen to compare and contrast John Dewey and Nel Noddings views on their educational goals, a social justice curriculum, liberation education, issues of standardized testing and the effects on students and teachers. Dewey’s main educational goal is that education should have two sides: social and psychological. His evaluations are based on how the child interacts with society and how he/she contributes to the good of society. Dewey was the first one to say we need to look at the students to decide how to teach, a modern-day form of ‘differentiation’. He believed that all students should have the opportunity to take part in their own learning.
To analyse the different ways in which ground rules can be established with learners to support behaviour and respect it will be necessary to identify some of the different methods available to teachers. The benefits or otherwise of these methods will be examined to assess their value and suitability to what they seek to achieve. Throughout education, business, life and sport, ground rules are used primarily as a means of managing any given group but also as a means of creating a safe environment and giving the participants responsibility. Within the learning environment there are a number of ways in which to establish those ground rules. 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.
Some claim we should not teach we should facilitate. The difference being a teacher is often the one who holds all the knowledge where as a facilitator makes the pupils become involved in their own learning. For this assignment I will talk about the training cycle and
To define cross curricular teaching, Shanahan (1997) describes that a cross curricular method is one of planning and establishing teaching around a thematic approach making it possible to amalgamate teaching across the core areas of the curriculum. In comparison, discrete subject teaching couldn’t be, to any further extent the opposite. Discrete subject teaching encompasses direction and a plethora of knowledge within a subject area to deliver the essential knowledge that children need to learn. The background of differing curriculum
Behaviourists regard all behaviour as a response to a stimulus. They assume that what we do and the way we behave is
According to Astuto, Clark, McGree, Pelton Fernandez, and Read (1994), effective educators demonstrate a level of expertise that surpasses that of a teacher that has just basic skills. This assumption falls under the reform view. These superior educators understand the whole child and reveal a level of professional expertise that sets them apart from others and improves student learning. The new teacher and principal evaluations promote the success of students. Through the evaluation process teachers are encouraged to growth professionally.
From this, my students will be able to express their individuality and I can help them develop this. I want my student athletes to be unique and, with that in mind, possess unique skills as it pertains to sports. I believe that if student athletes possess a firm understanding of who they are as individuals and what they are capable of, and then they can truly develop their individual style(s) of play. This in turn can help lead to team unity and can establish a team spirit within all the student athletes that can lead to camaraderie and ultimately, success. It is our job as educators and coaches to help develop our student athletes not only physically, but mentally as well; promoting uniqueness, along with individuality, can help in this developmental
Outline and evaluate the learning theory explanation of attachment Learning Theory suggests that all behaviour is learnt either through classical conditioning or operant conditioning. Classical conditioning is where an unconditioned stimulus gives an unconditioned response. For example an US e.g. milk would give an UR e.g. baby satisfaction.
