All of the children at the daycare were playing, waiting for their parents to arrive and pick them up. The teacher assistant was fairly new, and still getting used to the schedule and rules all the children and staff had to follow. Several of the kids’ parents seemed to come rather late, so the new assistant decided it would be fine for the kids to play with the daycare toys until they were ready leave. The youngest pupil was four, and the oldest had just turned seven, so all the children were undeniably messy and careless during almost all of their lives. The assistant’s excused themselves temporarily, the newbie could definitely handle the remaining children and if not it could help teach and improve her skills.
How can you establish a classroom climate that promotes appropriatebehaviors and acceptance of all students?
The context for teaching and learning incorporates and refers to the following learning environments: physical, social, personal, and content-specific. The physical contexts for teaching and learning may include things like desk arrangements, classroom temperature, room lighting, classroom design and capacity, time of day, and so on (Shulman, 2004). Palmer (1998) says, “good teaching is always essentially communal [and] that teaching cannot be reduced to technique” (pg. 115). He then goes on to say “engaging students in the community of truth does not require that we put the chairs in a circle and have a conversation. A sense of connected can also be generated—in classes large and small—through lectures, lab exercises, fieldwork,
The primary goal of workplaces is to produce goods and services. However, these places are also important in facilitating learning. Workplace erudition takes place when employees’ knowledge and experience are developed through taking part in daily work activities (Ashton 2004). For
I plan to contribute by putting listening and putting forth ideas and opinions in class. I will also come prepared by doing the assigned readings. I am skilled in presentations and experience in various technologies so I can share my knowledge with my group. In large group discussions I have no trouble speaking my mind the same goes for small group discussions. I can support other classmates by reminding myself to let them speak when it is there turn and to listen as well. I will also not will side conversations while others are talking. I will remind classmates that they are free to speak their minds and that they should be entitles to their own opinions in this classroom. Fear of speaking one’s mind inhibits and environment where participation can thrive. I can connect with my classmates by talking to them inside and outside of class if I see
Learning environment refers to whole range of components and activities in which learning takes place. It includes all external and internal components which have positive or negative impact on learners.
• Encourages students to reflect on their role and contribution to the process of the group work.
Classroom rules and routines: In this classroom, I am committed to building a cooperative learning environment that contributes to the confidence of students in sharing their ideas. This confidence is built around an understanding that the students have, that they are to respect each other and their ideas. There are multiple ethnicities represented in this classroom, therefore it is paramount that everybody respects each other and appreciates what others have to say. The students understand that in order for there to be an effective learning environment, they need to be active participants while also having the patience to wait until they are called upon to speak.
Most critics of today’s educational system blame the teachers and the schools for the lack of student engagement. They rarely implicate the students to assign blame. Could it be that learners today lack intrinsic motivation, something quite catastrophic? Motivation is a reason one has a general desire to do something. An ideal learning environment would consist on having students learning for a price, learning with a passion. Motivation is when someone, a youth, wants to do something by putting their time, effort and energy to achieve it. Research says that motivation increases the amount of effort and energy that student 's spends on a task. Active exploration in schools shows that if students do something that is more interesting to them, they will put more effort into that certain activity. Adult world connection told us that both teacher and students have to motivate and be motivated. Motivation should be ever present in today’s schools and students should try to get motivated and teachers should encourage instead of being discouraging.
Relationships with all stakeholders by using strategies that communicate high and equitable expectations for all students.
Setting up an effective classroom environment is essential in order to be a successful teacher. Good classroom management requires careful planning of the classroom organization, rules, procedures, and instruction. Without these, classrooms would not run smoothly and efficiently. It is not enough to assume that students will behave appropriately throughout the year just because the teacher has taught the students what is expected of them. Good teachers encourage good behavior by constantly implementing classroom rules, procedures, and consequences.
The ultimate goal is to be an authentic and effective teacher, who creates a classroom atmosphere, where students feel safe in their learning environment and become self-confident individuals. Furthermore, teachers must possess both comprehensive pedagogical knowledge and an exceptional content knowledge in their chosen specialty field to create a positive, effective, and authentic learning environment. An effective learning environment, in accordance with The Australian Curriculum and Assessment Reporting Authority, provides learners with general capabilities, content and encourages confident, involved learners and effective communicators (2014). The Australian Professional Teaching Standards define the elements required to ensure high quality teaching explicitly across seven standards. However, it is worthy of note that all seven standards are interrelated and complementary in establishing an effective teaching and learning environment for all students.
