Executive Summary :
The conspectus of the report is to highlight the key features of MIT pedagogy through which the staff can assist the new student population in the MIT in a number of ways . Due to the diverse background with versatile experiences of the students , it enables them towards obtaining the position of high repute in NZ economy, and this would be more successful if the MIT staff can create the environment within the MIT that leads to a positive experience. The report gives emphasis on the learning style of the MIT which ensures in fulfilling the student’s objective in a much applied and practical way rather than embossing the theories; as the NZ economy is relying more on the SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprise) as compared to the Large Scale Enterprises, thereby this applied learning phenomena provides the sense of NZ work culture on a broader scale.
Introduction :
The aim of the paper is to find the substantial aspects through which the Management of MIT would able to figure out the personal and interpersonal behaviour within the pupil community due to the new environment that is apparently different from the society or experience they belong to , and how it can contribute to their respective achievements in their chosen field of studies at MIT by incorporating their personality traits (which of course gets improvised , if required , when they develop the sense of value) in the learning methods . The basic theme of the discussion would be to describe the
Describe a strategy from outside your organization – or even the education sector – that could radically improve the American preK-12 education system
I believe that education is an individual, unique experience for every student who enters a classroom. In order for children to benefit from what schools offer, I think that teachers must fully understand the importance of their job. First, I believe that teachers must consider teaching to be a lifestyle, not a mere forty-hour-a-week job, because a teacher's goals for his/her students encompass much more than relaying out-of-context facts to passive students. As professionals entrusted with the education of young minds, teachers must facilitate learning and growth academically, personally, and ethically. By providing a quality education to each individual in one's classroom, a teacher equips children
Teaching theories are as much part of the classroom as the student and the teacher. The effect individual theories have on an environment depends how they are incorporated within the classroom in addition to the influence they have had on the curriculum construction. This essay will briefly look at how motivation theory, cognitive and social cognitive theory along with constructivism have impacted on education and the classroom.
For me, the decision to become a teacher is more of a way of life than a career. I have always loved school, practicing at being school marm from a young age, and voraciously devouring every shred of education offered me in my career as a student. If it were possible, I would be a student for the rest of my life. And then I still would not have learned enough. As a teacher, I hope to instill this appetite for knowledge in secondary students. They are, after all, the future leaders of the world, and what better place to expand the minds of the generations to come than here in Appalachia where education programs, especially the sciences, which I plan to teach, are poorly funded and children’s dreams
Mass public schooling has traditionally proclaimed among its goals the following: (1) to help each student gain personal fulfillment and (2) to help create good citizens. The two goals they claim here are for the betterment of the individual and the other for society that have an odd relation with one another. These two goals are what put schools at tough ends. The schools do not want to limit the students’ individuality but also want to encourage conformity to allow for students to mingle with other students. The issue that causes most tension in schools is the strict scheduling students must follow which by allowing the students to choose several electoral courses in their schedules levitates. Individualism is also encouraged in the school system with allowing the students the freedom to represent themselves through their own clothing. These points will be further and thoroughly discussed through the remaining of this essay.
The Graduate is a great example of a film where lens and camera choices were used effectively to convey the director’s point of view. It seemed like every choice made by the director Mike Nichols director and the director of cinematography Bob Surtees was justified. The outcome of each shot played an important role in shaping the message of the film. The cinematography of Bob Surtees is very complicated and thoughtful but at the same time seems poetic and spontaneous.
Education entails individual human development in the cognitive, emotional, creative and social areas. All children are entitled to a free education regardless of race, cultural background or handicaps. For education to be an effective part of the students life, the student and teacher must be actively and enthusiastically involved in learning. A teacher needs to be well prepared and organized. They need to know the perspective goals for each student and ways to achieve these goals. Teachers need to work with students to help them grow and develop ways to use their knowledge.
Assessment of students is a crucial part of their education. It is one thing to be able, with some degree of confidence, to say that 'Johnny knows x' but it is quite another to be able to say 'Sarah can x'. It is clear that assessment at its core is involved in the measuring of something and that if I expect students to reach above a certain level of 'something' then I must clearly communicate that to them. The backwards design that we are familiar with goes someway towards achieving this goal. The notion that we state at the outset our expectations for student learning and then design activities to achieve that stated goal appears to be common sense. However, the tendency for teachers to rely upon
Theories provide the foundation for educational practices, and many of them exist. While I consider my personal theory or philosophy of education to be one that is something of an ever-changing conglomerate of ideas, I realize that some of my guiding principals are directly attributed to well a well established theory.
There are many theories that are relevant to classroom teaching today. Marsh (2008, p. 17) states that “each theory is nothing more than a set of reasonable suggestions”. A teacher should look at the information available to them and take what is necessary to achieve a positive learning environment in their classroom. This may mean taking a little part of one theory and combining in with another part of a different theory, there is no singular theory or theorist that encompasses everything that is required in a modern classroom. Some of the most important theories of learning are motivation, constructivism and behaviourism. Teachers choose their teaching style and strategy to complement their students, to arrive at their own personal
The instrumentation and methods were sufficiently explained. In relation to the purpose of this study, the investigator gathered the student participants’ perceptions using a semi-structured and open-ended interview. For a period of thirty minutes, every student was interviewed. During the half an hour interview, the observations and notes were recorded in a field log. The legal guardians of the subjects and the subjects themselves were informed of the
Education is inevitable. It is all around us because we can learn from virtually anything. When you are cooking, dancing, talking or any other activity you have actually had to learn several things to be able to do them. In the educational perspective, I am a pragmatist and I tend to follow after Dewey's footsteps. The concept of Pragmatism is one that developed in the 20th century. My philosophy is based on the idea that learning should involve real-life situations. Learning becomes more concrete to a student when they apply it to real-life situations, as where learning things that do not connect to them has more of an abstract sense. Personally, I would have to agree with Dewey when he said, "I
I am seeking admission to the Master of Teaching program in the Intermediate/Senior Concentration through the Ontario Institute of Secondary Education at the University of Toronto.
First and foremost, I believe that the task of every teacher is to provide a safe and stimulating environment that fosters learning and development intellectually, emotionally, physically and socially. My personal philosophy of teaching is largely based on the idea of student-centred learning. I believe that students have just a big role to play in the learning process as a teacher, and with that, comes the need for collaboration between students and teachers.
In this paper, emphasis has been directed on the success experienced during the semester, the hardships, outstanding findings and recommendations. Success during the semester was contributed to availability of a course syllabus, group works and an engaging professor. By contrast, the semester also suffered some downsides contributed by difficult and hard o understand topics as well as a demanding project. During the course of the semester, it was discovered that some students develop affiliation with different topics, and hence it is important for the institution to put this into consideration in creation of semester
