The stability in the classroom is necessary to meet basic needs of students. I believe firmly that if basic human needs are not met then there is no hope for curricular learning to take place. The student needs to be comfortable to learn. To correct a behavior that is already in progress prevention can also be a method of attack. The key is to discover the antecedent and change it, remove it, or take action to create a new one.
By allowing certain behaviors to occur without consequences the teacher is sending the message that it is okay. This can cause the students to lose focus and a decrease in understanding of the lesson being taught. It can also allow chaos to reign supreme. Disruptions can also make other students feel threatened. Students must feel safe and secure in their class in order to learn and grow in education.
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.
3.1 Explain how the teaching role involves working with other professionals. 3.2 Explain the boundaries between the teaching role and other professional roles. As a training officer at webs training I am required to heavily communicate with other professionals within my job role. Firstly I work with other training officers at work to produce an equal and fair education to the pupils a good example of this is if a training offices is absent one day there will be a structured lesson plans to follow so the officer that is covering can pick up the lesson plan adjust it to meet there needs and be able to provide a good lesson even if it’s not the trade area there back ground is from. Other professionals I work with are supervisors/mentors
They need to be taught not to give out personal info such as telephone numbers as well as their emails addresses, as their information can be pieced together to make a fuller profile of themselves, which can be used against them, to gain their trust and confidence to be possibly be groomed or even worse taken (snatched) . Lessons can be taught at school via their ICT lessons also social communication groups with parents and carers, parents and carers will aid from this as this will make them much more aware of the problem, with them if someone makes some disturbing advances, via a chat room or social site (when they are pretending to be their friend,) as the age of naivety towards these situations and sinareoes. We need to constantly empower the supervision, as adults can do this by filters or privacy settings, on the computers’, although we will have to remind them constantly (without being patronising) to become cyber aware, this will be resulting in a limited time on the computer at any one time, for younger children. The older the children become the much more aware of the consequences’ of the actions, eventually these young
This does not mean that parents have no rights to what happens to their child while they are at school but this allows school to guide student behaviors though discipline. This idea is called in loco parentis (pg. 378). This concept was once more important in schools than it is now but it has brought forth it idea that no matter the student, disabled or not, there needs to be a certain level of responsibility put on all students for their behaviors when they are at school. This would be a great chapter of the book for parents to read because it would help them to understand why the school is doing what it is doing.
It is the schools responsibility to be able to provide good enough teachers, who can prepare these students. In order to have a good education, there must be qualified teachers there to teach and prepare students effectively. Bauerlein questions schools curriculums and the way they are presenting “complex texts” (Bauerlein) to the students; “The more high school teachers place complex texts on the syllabus and concoct slow, deliberate reading exercises for students to complete, the more they will inculcate the habit” (Bauerlein). Students learn what their teachers tell them they have to learn, without knowing the effects the teachings will have on them whether good or bad. That is why schools providing qualified teachers are so important
Theory Question 4 Explain the ways in which you would establish groundrules with your learners, which underpin behaviour and respect for each other The setting up of groundrules should be made at the beginning of a course to make sure learners are aware of the boundaries and rules within which they are expected to work. Without groundrules being established classroom management may become an issue, which could promote disruption and ultimately affect the learning within the group. When discussing ground rules with learners, it is important for the tutor to establish a set of their own rules, which promotes their commitment to the learning of the group. Incorporated in my own ground rules would be; • Arrive on time to the class and finish the class on time; • To be organised and fully prepared for lessons; • Give everyone within the group equal
“The institutions traditionally procure, provide and control the technology for learning but now students are acquiring their own personal technologies for learning and institutions are challenged to keep pace” (Research in Technology Learning, 2010). Computers and other technical devices that are being used to enhance student learning helps to make teaching more creative and effective; however, it has also caused a lot of confusion and chaos in regards to ethics. Once teachers only had to be concerned about the basic rules of classroom etiquette and they could govern their classroom visually. Now teachers have to implement rules and guidelines to ensure that technology in the classroom is being used for its intended purpose to protect students from lurking dangers that might not always be detected by human
For us, school is a miniature version of society as it provides us with skills that we need once we enter work or when starting a family also, the experience prepares us for interacting with members of society and the rules that society has. He believed that school rules should be strictly reinforced, punishments should reflect the seriousness of the damage done to the social group and it should be made clear to those who have done wrong why they are being punished. This way, pupils would come to learn that it is wrong to act against the social group, it would also teach them to exercise self-discipline but more importantly that misbehaviour would damage society as a whole. Durkheim argued that education teaches individuals specific skills necessary for their future occupations. This is particularly important in industrial society with its increasingly complex and specialised division of labour.
