In most countries, the primary goal of education among college students is the growth of a sense of citizenship. Earlier in society, education for the purpose of citizenship was an essential component for the maintenance of a critically thinking and well-informed society and this trend has made a re-emergence since the dawn of the 20th century . Throughout the course of history, education was perceived to be a means of protecting civil education from the hazards of curriculum overspecialization.

Ethical conflicts arise when a person considers that his/her responsibilities and duties for one group are not consistent with the responsibilities and duties for the other group (Hunt, Chonko, & Wilcox, 1984).

So, the research designs need special attention in order to ensure that the participation is voluntary in the true sense.

It implies that such individuals would not only dislike ...

In the context of learning, adults come to a class with certain knowledge and understanding about the subject being taught. Their age, experience and expertise prompt them to learn a subject as a solution to a problem rather than for the sake of knowledge. It is a good thing to have knowledge as an adult but not too good for an adult-teacher. For a teacher, adult student’s preconceived ideas hinder the teaching-learning process of striking common ground, creating group interest and establishing key goals for a class. Students with varied educational back grounds and experiences learn mostly as ...

There are many similarities from chapter 5 to 12 that deal with a variety of learning difficulties. For the teacher in a practical setting, these similarities have implications for assisting students with difficulties outside of the norm.

Critical thinking is a desirable value in every profession that each individual ventures into. In education, critical thinking has been considered as one of the most required value to students.

Thus in this context, skillful thinking is used to denote valuable tool for disapprovals as well as useful in formulation of workable solution to complex personal as well ...

Is Firing Bad Teachers the Real Solution to the De Facto Segregation in the U.S. Education System?

In “Why We Must Fire Bad Teachers”, Evan Thomas and Pat Wingert have once again identified a very old problem in the U.S. education system, that there is a huge distinction in education quality and outcomes based on class and race in this country. There always has been, and in reality it is still a system that is very highly segregated by race and social class. All the concerns about low graduation rates and falling test scores over the last thirty years ...

Spirituality is compatible with relationships because indeed the plan of God right from creation is that human beings should have mutual relationship procreate and fill the Earth. Spirituality and relationships or marriages are closely tied to each other because relationships affect a person’s spirituality. It is however important for one to remember that spirituality is only compatible with relationships through self-control.

Teaching English language to people in different countries that are non-native speakers entails a lot of duties and responsibilities. An English teacher should apply the principles of motivation in most, if not all, aspects of language learning acquisition . There is a need for proper preparation/planning, execution, assessment/evaluation, and re-evaluation of students’ learning. Primarily, a teacher should look at, not only his /her role and perspective teaching the subject, but also consider the personal viewpoints and motivation of young learners. Thus, questions arise as to: Why is motivation important in the classroom? Why do students have different types of motivation? ...

Debatably, personal responsibility is as one’s ability to wholly take care of oneself by means of treating oneself with respect, keeping healthy, keeping a sound mind and managing one's emotions. Personal responsibility is basically taking responsibility for one's actions and accepting the consequences that come along.

It could also mean that individuals do not have to blame others or other factors outside themselves for failure to meet their expected goals and standards. In education, ...

There is a contention among childhood educators whether children should engage in play that makes use of technology-based tools and devices. The issue came about as a result of educators' observation that while technology-based tools mimicked some of the children's regular play activities such as coloring and drawing, actual coloring and drawing activities using the traditional drawing materials allowed for more creativity than the more modern method. In addition, it was widely perceived that children experience "behavioral problems, higher psychological difficulty scores, less physical activity, obesity, irregular sleeping patterns, impaired academic performance, violence, and less time for active and ...

Introduction

Education is a vital component for the growth and success of Britons, but with a wide range of schools to choose from, it is no easy task for parents to make the choice of school for their children. The choice becomes more difficult when the school system is categorized into two types, private and state. There is no doubt that private school has certainly some advantages over state schools and state schools are outperformed by private schools in A level and GCSE results. But having said that, neither all the private schools are best in education quality nor all ...

Chemistry taught me the importance of perseverance and hard work. When I first started studying chemistry in High School, I thought it was difficult and incomprehensible.

The results of the study reveal the key features that must be addressed if close reading is to be implemented ...

I have had many types of assessments over the years, but I would like to focus on two types for the purpose of this paper: formal objective assessment and informal classroom assessment. The formal objective assessment will be the paper and pencil tests. These will include the true and false, fill in the bland, and multiple choice tests. The informal in class assessments will include the responses that I have received when I have answered classes in the classroom as I have answered questions in a large group setting and participated in small group assignments.

Question1. Analysis of the differences, advantages and the disadvantages between learner and subject centered Curriculum.

Learner and subject centered curriculums differ on philosophical issues of behavior and teaching styles. Learner centered curriculum focus on individual student learning based on what the teacher determines as key needs. Teachers in this curriculum promote growth by guiding students based on their needs and interests. This curriculum has goal based classrooms and students aim to achieve predetermined objectives. Arguably, the Subject centered curriculum follows a set curriculum where the teacher determines what ought to be taught at each time. It follows a set ...

Discourse as defined by Gee refers to the distinctive ways of speaking, acting, and writing. It is often coupled with the manner of interacting, dressing, mental thought, among other day to day activities. Discourses, in other words, refers to the cultural influences that contribute into the identity of an individual granted from the social setup in which he or she is exposed to. Therefore, Discourses are unique for particular groups of people depending on their cultural practises. It is essential to note that discourse is not static and easily changes from one way to another as people are exposed ...

The article by Thomas L. Friedman entitled “How About Better Parents?” talks about the involvement of parents when it comes to their child’s education. He says that great teachers can really make a difference, but it is better parents that can push individual progress.

People are wondering why America scores in the bottom as compared to countries such as Shanghai, Singapore and Finland. The article takes the blame off the teachers and the students and takes a look at parents who ...

Today teachers are broadly viewed as central both in the area of problems with education and as the ones who can solve it.

Classroom Comprehensive Technology Plan: Increasing Productivity and Efficiency of Students and Teachers

The comprehensive technology plan has the overall goal of producing quality learners who are ready to face life after school. To be able to do this, I as the teacher must be able to incorporate inside the classrooms the actual technologies used in the real world so that my students will not stay naïve. Even if my students are well taught on theories, but they do not know how to apply these in the real world, then all the learning that they gain from school will be nothing because what is important is how they will apply these ...

Abstract.

Effective childhood learning is a combination of child efforts with those of the teachers and parents. A child’s development starts after learning how to interact. Language and communication is vital at this stage as it enables interaction and development of relationships. As a child grows, various stages with a variety of needs crop up. Several theories have been developed to explain the reasons behind these changes of needs. The development of a child, however, totally depends on the association with teachers, peers and parents who establish the style of learning and focus in life. This paper analyses ...

Empirical research in education needs conceptual clarity, a good balance between the various parts of research, and particularly the research questions and research methods (Punch, 2009).

The analytical ability of a student is subject to many aspects both internal and external. I believe that the development of analytical ability is a step by step process that enables the student to move from rather simple skills to complex or rather advanced methods of analyzing things, However, the standards as set by the education department do not reflect the steps of the development of the analytical ability.

The lowest level of analyzing texts starts by understanding the text in question as well as internalizing it. By so doing, a student is able to apply the simplest analytical ...

Summary – Customized learning theory

Teaching pedagogy and style goes hand in hand with the variety of learning styles.

A plan is important in all aspects of life. In education, plans help students to organize their work in order to prevent future chaos and disorganization of class work (William 2011). At the start of the week, a student must plan ahead of the lessons to be taught by their teachers. In addition, students should create a plan of how they are going to revise the notes given by their teachers. This will enable them to allocate time effectively. Planning on the time management will also avoid wastage of time. The plan will also ensure that the various subjects ...

People talk of vision, or having a vision at some point in their life. But do they really understand what it means? Do they really know what it takes to make their vision a reality? Taking a textbook definition, a vision is a state of foreseeing and anticipating for things that may not be seen at the moment through physical eyes. There are people who go through life with a clear and unwavering focus on their vision, and there are those who cruise through it uncaring. As someone who wishes for a happy and fulfilling future, both personally and ...

Effective communication tools are important for students to grasp while still undergoing their tenure in school. The way teachers communicate and interact with their students helps students build confidence on different ways they can communicate. Teachers are seen as leaders in the eyes of their students; thus, comprehensive teaching techniques improve communication and understanding within the class. The need to understand and be understood in class is a vital component. Engaging students is, therefore, a brilliant skill that teachers have to master. This paper seeks to discuss the importance of effective communication skills between teachers and scholars.

Students must ...

There were five children and two teachers in the toddler room. At meal time, the teachers washed the children’s’ hands and helped them sit in their chairs. The chairs were small wooden chairs that were appropriate with their weight and height. Additionally, there was a wooden, little, rectangular table. After situating the children, the teachers provided divided plastic plates for each child, colorful Sippy cups filled with whole milk, and iron forks. Their meal consisted of boiled broccoli, mandarin slices, a quarter of a slice of white bread and cheesy rice with chicken. The teachers served the children ...

Chapter 2 draws attention on various things. Initially, the chapter starts by claiming, “It’s not what we teach, but it’s what they learn”. Here, the author claims that what happens does not matter when children do not understand or experience them. Therefore, the article asserts that punishments and rewards can help children in realizing that they can only be lovable if they do good deeds. Interestingly, the same happens in school when teachers punish students involved in bad acts while reward the good ones. However, it is true to conclude that if the reward of punishment system ...

In "There's a Reason They Choose Schools", the author, Timothy Wheeler, suggests schools have fallen victim to violent shootings because they are gun-free zones and if students and administrators were allowed to carry concealed weapons, the number of shootings would be drastically reduced. Gun rights and laws have always been a controversial subject in this country, but since the recent shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, the topic has been pushed to the forefront. Many states are currently in the process of considering bills that would allow teachers and students to carry weapons. However, is arming college students and kindergarten teachers ...

Many different studies have documented the various difficulties associated with online learning. Both students and teachers have shown that online learning may be inferior to face-to-face learning in many aspects.

Instructors also share frustrations and difficulties with online learning. Jaggars (2011) explained that "none of the colleges offered faculty the degree of expert support they needed to redesign curricula and pedagogical strategies for the online context” (p. 36). The author went on to point out that online courses are sometimes not counted as part of a teachers course load, or that enrollment numbers may be significantly higher in online ...

In the Infant Room, two teachers and four children were present. Two of the children were eating their breakfast and the others were eating snacks.

For teachers to be successful in their teaching, teachers need to have pedagogical content knowledge of the subject that are teaching (Gess-Newsome, Lederman & Association for the Education of Teachers in Science, 2001). According to study done by Shulman’s teachers need to have deep understanding of the subject matter that they teach their students and these knowledge are divided into two categories; structure of knowledge and practical knowledge. Structure knowledge includes both the principals and theories of a particular subject. While on the other hand, practical knowledge involves the calculation and the composition that constitute a certain discipline. Both ...

Many educators believe that motivation solely lies fully within an individual student which is not the case. To many students high school is a low point in student engagement despite being a vital time for nurturing the skills necessary to succeed in the adulthood stage. Learning becomes associated with drudgery or hard work instead of delight. This lack of desire to engage actively in study is a great hindrance to attaining good grades or successful completion of high school education.

According to a past research by Stephanie V. Wormton “Motivation in High School” cite that so many students express ...

In “Idiot Nation,” Michael Moore discusses the condition of the education system in the United States, and what according to him is the reason behind its deterioration.

Moore finds it ironic that politicians complain about the America’s set-back in the educational aspect, when it is they who are refusing to finance education. According to Moore, there is a ...

Many people in America are deciding to home school their children because they're afraid their children are not getting a high enough standard of education, their religious beliefs/values are not respected in the public school environment or simply because they’re worried for their Childs safety in the public school system.
