Every student is different, from how they learn to how much effort do they put in when studying. But with the right teacher guiding them to success, nothing is impossible. So, how do we motivate the future generation to succeed in school? The Perils and Promise of Praise, by Carole S. Dweck. The author focus on how to motivate students to succeed in school. From how you talk to them, motivate them to learn and rewarding them.

So if we place our students in an environment that supports their efforts to learn we can conclude that our students will learn and actualize their potential. Studies in the health field have shown that when a person is in a socially supportive environment they are known to use positive methods to overcome undesirable situations. So, we can conclude that if a student is in a socially supportive environment and have a good teacher-student relationship then they too will use positive methods for succeeding in the classroom. It is believed by Abraham Maslow that everyone comes to a point of self-actualization, meaning that there is a need to develop all of one’s potential talents and capabilities (Snowman, J. (2015). But this can only be achieved in an environment where one can develop all of the lower “Hierarchy of Needs,” such as safety, belongingness and love, and esteem. Without the lower tiers being developed, one can not come to self-actualization. Only in a supportive classroom can this be

In August Wilson’s play “King Hedley II”, the plot is set on the coming of age in the life of an African American man who wants to start a new life and stay away from violence. Wilson writes about the black experience and the struggle that many African American peoples faced. In “King Hedley II”, there are different generations depicted between Hedley and Elmore showing the different sides of each generation.

Arthur Leander was a character who appeared briefly in the novel, Station Eleven. He was a middle aged actor who died on stage during his performance in the play King Lear. Arthur was additionally insecure in relationships. He went through three divorces in his lifetime, in which the first two ended due to Arthur cheating on his wife. Furthermore, Arthur was said to be (quote about playing the role of Arthur). Arthur’s character traits in Station Eleven defined who he was as a person.

Before Franklin is sent to France he went on another diplomatic mission. This one sadly was much less successful. After America attempted to take over Canada due to a belief that “the French were explosively restive under the British yoke” (Kennedy and Cohen 136) and failed when their assault on Québec was beaten off on the last day of 1775 (Kennedy and Cohen 137), Ben Franklin, Samuel Chase, and Charles Carroll were sent to Canada to persuade the Canadians to become the 14th colony in rebellion against the British (Procknow). Because the rebels, under General Montgomery, lost at the battle of Québec, Franklin and company arrived to an uninterested colony. Their worthless Continental dollars held no value in Canada which led them to believe

“You need some good dirt. Them seeds ain’t gonna grow in that dirt” (10). In the play King Hedley II by August Wilson, Ruby argues that seeds won’t grow in bad dirt, but is that entirely true? King Hedley is convinced that the dirt plays no role in the growth of the seeds, but each opinion has a backstory. The seeds and the dirt have a deeper meaning that intertwines with everyone’s past; however there seems to be conflict on the relationship between them.

“ Students do become behaviorally, emotionally, and cognitively involved in the learning activities their teachers provide (e.g., write an essay, solve a math problem), and their extent of effort, enjoyment, and strategic thinking does predict important outcomes, such as achievement. But students also do more than this. Students also, more or less, proactively contribute into the flow of instruction they receive as they attempt not only to learn but also to create a more motivationally supportive learning environment for themselves ( Bandura,

King Arthur is one of the most popular literary figures of all time, capturing the hearts and minds of people for centuries. Hundreds of literary works have been created about the great medieval king. However, the debate goes on as to whether King Arthur was a real person or a fictional hero. Historians have yet to verify the actual existence of King Arthur.

Students are often told that the path to success tends to be a lonely one because only they can get themselves there. For the most part that is true, they must be self-motivated and passionate about their future, but along the way they get to meet special people that want to see them to accomplish their goals. From an early age the relationship built between students and teachers has molded and impacted the student’s life. The relationship they have with a teacher can define the attitude that student has with the subject being taught. A lot of emphasis is put on students when they fail a course and they question their effort. Although, the root of the problem is not always the student, but the method the instructor is using to teach the student.

Hence, after we look at all these case studies, we could conclude that the students’ academic performance is clearly tied to teacher’s expectation. In other words, the students who were deemed as “better” or “good” ends up achieving better also due to the higher expectation that the teacher was giving to them. These result, especially Rosenthal and Jacobson’s, demonstrated extremely powerful self-fulfilling prophecy on the part of the teacher. This is because when a teacher forms certain expectations towards their students based on whatever characteristics

Using the same example as above, the teacher may give an assignment and instead of being aware of the student’s progress, they may go back to their desk and the struggles go unnoticed because of a negative self-efficacy.

Gaining education enhances a respectful life for an individual to live respectfully in the society. In this modern era, every individual needs to be educated. Education is one of the ways where people can know about the history of their country and also about the latest technologies. In the essay “Grades and self-Esteem”, the author Randy Moore, argues about self-esteem in students and their grades. He also claims that teachers should be genuine in giving grades to their students rather than focusing on their self-esteem. I agree with the author’s view regarding the grading system and disagree with the Moore, regarding building self-esteem in students.

“What the educator does in teaching is to make it possible for the students to become themselves.” 1A teachers objective should not be to shape the students as a reflection of that educators image, instead they should see themselves as the medium of which the information in communicated, they should see themselves a person who elevates that students to higher concepts of learning, aspiration and liberation. A good teacher must recognize the strength and weaknesses in skills of the individual and class and reflect on how to leverage strength amongst learners to

King Arthur isn’t a strong leader! Everyone believes that King Arthur had a perfect kingdom and that he was a strong and brave leader and could face any danger and come back alive. In King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table by Roger Lancelyn Green, King Arthur has trouble making crucial decisions in the story and lets his emotions get the best of him during drastic times, during the trial of Guinevere he let Lancelot escape with her even though he knew Lancelot would show up, he let his emotions get the best of him when he heard the rumors of Lancelot and Guinevere being together because he was scared of the truth of them actually being together, he doesn’t listen to the warnings of Merlin when he says that Guinevere would bring the end to his kingdom. King Arthur is a weak Leader!

Teachers play a pivotal role in shaping the behaviour and educational success of students and as such they carry a huge responsibility in the classroom. Everything the teacher says or do has a great impact on students’ lives as students depend on the teacher for guidance, for determining acceptable and social behaviour in the classroom and more importantly their learning and academic success. In addition, the role played by the teacher in fostering students learning causes them to exhibit certain attitudes which could have a long lasting negative or positive influence on students. Based on research it was surmised that high teacher expectation mean that the teacher believe that the student is a high-achiever and the dynamics
