To a teacher, education is what opens the door to the real world. Having a good education can create better opportunities for the student to excel in life. In order to better oneself, the first step is to obtain a higher education. Most teachers see the world as something they can change or mold by educating the next generation of learners. As a teacher of science, the need to mold the perspectives of life and nature is highly needed. Most of the information that will be taught in a science classroom can be connected to an event that they might face in real life and should be incorporated in a way that helps them understand the options that they will have in order for them to overcome those issues. One of the main ways to contribute to each student is by teaching the material in a way that they will help them understand it as an individual. For instance, since each student is a different type of learner the material needs to incorporate specific activities that will meet those needs. …show more content…

Those experiences will help the students have a better understanding for it and help them relate what they learn to real life situations. While they relate these works with their own life experiences, the teacher will need to show them that they can do what they put their mind to. By the teacher having a positive disposition and high expectations for the students, they will do all that they can to meet those expectations. Also, as a teacher, it is our responsibility to make sure that the students are understanding the material that is being covered. If the student has any type of complications or challenges, the teacher and the student needs to discuss methods that might need to be altered in order to meet his/her individual needs. The teacher should go into the classroom with the mindset that each student can and want to

Numerous calls for change in the ways science is being taught in America offer beguiling challenges that are not new to the science education community. Most visions of promoting educational change focus on the societal need for a more scientifically literate nation. Such changes and literacy developed through the use of research-based instructional methods are predicted to increase recruitment into math, science and engineering careers that serve as America‘s economic engines (Center for Science, Mathematics and Engineering Education, Committee on Undergraduate Science Education, 1999; National Science Foundation, 1996; Project 2061/American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1989). Along with science literacy, calls for change in instructional methods stress active learning through inquiry that models scientific processes. Research indicates that teachers who use collaborative or active teaching approaches achieve higher levels of student learning than those using more traditional and passive instructional techniques (Goodsell, Maher, & Tinto, 1992; Wankat, 2002; Weimer and Lenze, 1994).

It's helped me see different ways I would like to teach and how I would like to be as a teacher. The teacher whose classroom I'm in has been teaching for over 30 years, she's very experienced and I can learn a lot from her. I've seen how she reacts to the children who aren't listening and it has helped me learn how to react to that as well. For example, something that I have learned is that different students need to be helped or disciplined differently than others. There is a student who acts out a lot be she simply ignores him, the class has learned to do the same and he stops acting out without being told to stop.

It is important for the teacher and student to be on the same page.

This will strengthen the teacher and student relationship. Responsibility is important when problems arise in the classroom.

This assignment will critically appraise my philosophy of education. It will also detail previous conceptions of education, outline the values and beliefs of different philosophies surrounding education, and discuss how past experiences has influenced my present thinking. I believe education should be about empowerment and allowing children to reach their potential, but I believe the child should be at the centre of education. Children should not be forced to learn off the syllabus just so they get adequate grades thus reflecting well on the teacher, just because a class achieves remarkable grades that does not mean that the teacher has fulfilled their job as an educator, it is only a small part of the occupation, being an educator is about
