...strategies within the classroom management system will be concluded. The classroom condition considered rather negative for the learners and educators is when the classroom does not encourage order. It is essential for an educator to be able to see each student and assign seats that avoid any mischief, disruptive verbal behavior, unsafe environment, as well as giving the educator the free range to move around the entire classroom so every learner is visible from several different angles in the room. If there are computers in the room the educator should be able to see what the student may access online. This can be done simply by facing the screens in a visible direction usually along a back wall so the educator can view any content. This can simply be done by arranging the desks in a circle or a horseshoe to prevent less talking and horse play. The educator’s desk would be off to the side behind the students along with a separate work table in another area of the room. If there is group work each student can move to their correct group and work in a common area with minimal distractions. With the educator moving throughout the class students are less likely to misbehave and/ or the educator can prevent any mischief. If an educator fails to have well planned lessons it can cause the classroom to become a negative environment simply because the educator is not able to provide adequate teachings. It is essential to ensure the day’s lessons plans are well planned and thought out along with...

The diversity in society provides specific challenges for educators sworn to provide an equal effective educational opportunity for all they must have a plan of action to teach all students in their classroom.

...Educating Millennials Synthesis Informative Essay As millennials are growing to more than half of the educational population, educators are looking for new, informative and engaging ways to keep the interest of millennials. Educators have recognized that the students today are far different from when they themselves first entered the classroom years ago. Educators are taking note and looking beyond the traditional classroom setting and adapting to the ways of how millennials are learning. Students' learning styles vary, which requires active faculty to use various teaching methods. By encouraging millennial students to use different types of learning tactics in different circumstances, educators are aiding these students to be critical thinkers and adaptive students. While educators are learning, millennials are also learning. Millennials often look for ways to learn on their time while trying to keep up with the latest technology. With advance knowledge of cell phones, millennials’ main sources of communication are instant message, social media, and text messaging. Millennials have become progressively interested in nontraditional learning. Millennials are looking for different avenues that are not only quick but also flexible with their everyday social and work life. Technology savvy millennials are conforming to a new approach of learning while being encouraged to think about their own values and future plans (Wilson, 2004). Millennials, also known as the Net Generation, have...

...asset. As an early childhood educator effective communication is paramount. The essay will examine what effective communication is, and how and why it is important for an early childhood educator to possess this skill. Grellier & Goerke (2010) describes effective communication as consisting of speaking clear and concise with the correct use of tone, the ability to give and receive feedback productively, active listening, non-verbal communication such as gestures, body language and eye contact. Speech is a complex process that is an important component in communication, speech is the outcome of sounds made in the voice box and stung together to make intelligible words. Without the appropriate use of tone, pitch, volume and speed of delivery, the impact of what is trying to be said will be greatly affected (Verderber, Verderber, & Sellnow, 2007). A speaker should be engaging, passionate and animated whilst remaining calm and collected. The tome of a speaker should remain conversational, so as to keep listeners attention and avoid the boredom of listeners. Bleile (2004) explained that speech is the foundation of language. Approximately 60% of brain growth occurs during the first few years of life, during this time the brain is shaped by children’s environment. Up to this point in a child’s life, parents have been the primary source of sounds and expressions. Once children are of school age this responsibility becomes shared with an educator who will become the primary...

...Conduct PRINCIPLE I: Ethical Conduct toward Students The professional educator should accept personal responsibility for teaching students character qualities which will help them evaluate the consequences of and accept the responsibility for their actions and choices. Parents are the primary moral educators of their children. Nevertheless, we believe all educators are obligated to help foster civic virtues such as integrity, responsibility, cooperation, loyalty, for human life, for others, and for self. PRINCIPLE II: Ethical Conduct toward Practices and Performance The professional educator does not use institutional or professional privileges for personal or partisan advantage. The professional educator assumes responsibility and accountability for his or her performance and continually strives to demonstrate competence. PRINCIPLE III: Ethical Conduct toward Professional Colleagues The professional educator will not reveal confidential information concerning colleagues unless they are required by law. The professional educator will not willfully make false statements about a colleague or the school system. PRINCIPLE IV: Ethical Conduct toward Parents and Community The professional educator recognizes that quality education is the main common goal of the public, boards of education, and educators, and that a cooperative effort is essential among these groups to attain that goal. The professional educator must understand and respect the values and traditions of the diverse...

...Name Date Class Title Course Number Journal Professor’s Name School Name There are so many problem that educators face in the school system everyday. One particular issue is to increase the understanding of how to Access the General Education Curriculum for students with significant cognitive disabilities. The U.S. Department of Educations, Office of Special Education Programs Educators decided to research the Access to the General Education Curriculum and all that it entails so that they can reconstruct and re- advise the content of the curriculum so that it could be use in the least restrictive environment( Spooner, et-all 2006). Many educators believe that if students are given adequate information and it is broken down in such away that the student can understand it than they would have a much better change of mastering the standardize test and master the curriculum. When dealing with significant cognitive disability students there are certain guidelines and procedures one must follow. Therefore educators take different steps to prepare the change for a good educational change. One of the steps that was used to Access the General Education Curriculum for students with significant cognitive disabilities was Approaches to Accessing the General Curriculum Peer Supports.

...where I live here in Georgia and Amberly Neese an English teacher here at Grand Canyon University. I chose Mr. Drew to interview first and for my administrator because he is an educator that I have looked up to since a very young age. I chose Mrs. Neese because she is the first teacher I have encountered here at GCU so far who has truly made a long, lasting impression on me as a person. Based on Mr. Drew and Mrs. Neese’s responses a few things were actually very similar. In fact, the answers that were similar are that; they both are educators who have a master’s degree; they both would recommend teaching only to people with a passion for it. They are also similar because they both have fellow teachers in their families, they both live in the communities they teach in, and both believe the greatest benefit of teaching is being able to influence and help children. Out of both of my interviews with Mr. Drew and Mrs. Neese only a few things stood out in stark contrast. These responses were; Mr. Drew has been an educator for almost 50 years while Mrs. Neese for almost 20, Mr. Drew began teaching because of a love of young people and sports, Mrs. Neese because of a love of children, helping people and because she wanted to be a good influence unlike some of her past teachers. I learned a lot about being an insider in the field of education during the two interviews I conducted. I learned from both interviews that the field of education is not for the light hearted. That education...

...Method This research will be conducted using the qualitative method. It will be used to answer both questions from past educators and present educators. They case study will involve interviews and surveys from past and current educators to determine their feelings on the NCLB act. It is being used to determine how they feel or felt about education of our children being downgraded to only memorization skills and being taught to test. Using this method will allow the educators to speak or answer freely without fear of reprisal. The interview responses will then be compared to the responses on the surveys. This will be used to determine if the educators are speaking freely in the interviews as they do with the anonomys surveys. In both the interview process and the survey process the participant’s information to include but not limited to name, school, sex, grade level, will be confidential. This is to ensure the reliability and validity of the study remains high. Participants The sample will consist of mostly middle class United States Midwestern adult educators ranging in age from 25-65 years of age. They will range in gender, with a focus on trying to get equal participants in both male and female.

...‘Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.’ — William Butler Yeats Reflected by an early childhood educator, it is evident the response or idea everyone has when you mention to them that you are an early childhood educator; ‘Oh, you get to play with children all day’ or, in a particular tone, ‘You must love kids’. Very limited is the understanding to how important the role of an educator is, more importantly how critical the role of an educator is in the development of a young child. Onlookers will see an educator involved in play with children but will never truly comprehend the purposeful planning that has been implemented nor the intentional teaching employed to inhibit learning. Similar is the thought process and understanding of most parents. The educators have to promote intentional teaching practices and help parents recognize its true purpose and value in supporting children’s learning and development. This essay aims to explain intentional teaching and its relation to early childhood education and care. This essay will also focus on removing or denunciating any confusion amongst educators questioning the need for intentional teaching or that the practice is a formal instruction in a play-based curriculum. Intentional teaching- Definition and its placement in ECE: ‘Intentional teaching: involves educators being deliberate, purposeful and thoughtful in their decisions and actions. Intentional teaching is the opposite of teaching by rote...

...This paper will critically explore a dilemma which has been encountered in my role as a practice educator. Approaches to learning, teaching and assessment will be identified and critically evaluated with factors which can impact on the students learning being addressed. Part of this paper will relate to personal refection; this element will be written in the first person. The terminology relating to practice teaching has changed over recent years; for the sake of this paper the most recent term of practice educator will be used. The practice learning placement is set in a statutory setting in one of the city’s main hospitals; the student’s role is to work as a member of the hospital social work team. The hospital works within a multidisciplinary team approach which involves all disciplines with the aim of the professional team being to promote the service user’s independence and ensure a safe and timely discharge from hospital (Crawford & Walker, 2005). The dilemma I intend to focus on in this case is that of poor productivity and incompletion of set tasks. It is an expectation expressed by a number of sources such as within the White Paper ‘Working Together; Education & Training’ (DH,1996) as well as policies and procedures where the placement is situated, that students’ will complete set tasks ‘effectively’ and ‘efficiently’ which at this stage of the placement was not being achieved (DH, 1996). The dilemma was causing a number of issues and was having a ‘knock on effect’...

...and willing to help them become successful, the love that personally that I have as an upcoming educator I want to have a great impact on students to let them know that they can learn at their level and as well be an encourager, and be there for each one of my student. Being in the classroom now as a teacher’s assistant has really given a great desire to continue my education and becoming an educator as a profession. Some educators take teaching as a vocation or a calling personally would say it would be a calling. It takes a special person to help students and a great love to help each one of them and a desire to see them be successful in their lives. My soul desire is to have my finger print on each child/student that is worked with in the classroom. Reward in teaching isn’t the money, but it is self-satisfaction when one has made a difference in a student’s/child’s life. If we as future educators could help build a child’s self-esteem and encourage them that they can reach their goals in life and be happy with them when they obtain their goals, this is a great payment and the privilege of being a teacher. Having more money as a teacher would be a Great Blessing, but seeing a child obtain their goals and be successful is payment enough for me. As a future educator, one of my goals is to be the cornerstone in the community by helping mold and teach my students to value of being an upright and good citizen. Students have the opportunity and the capability of problem solving...

Kapapasok ko pa lang sa Kongreso bilang kinatawan ng Capiz. Napuna ko na ang mga kongresista ay pumipila doon sa DepEd para humingi ng classrooms para sa kanilang mga lalawigan. Tinatanong ko ang mga nakakatanda sa akin doon sa kongreso, “Bakit tayo pumipila?Bakit hindi ba pinamimigay lang iyan, edukasyon namn iyan?Bakit kailangan na magsipsip pa doon sa kinauukulang ahensya?” Ang sagot sa akin, “Bata ka pa Mar, hindi mo pa alam ito, idealist ka pero kailangan talaga dahil itong mga classrooms na ito pinamimigay ito batay sa pulitika, kung close ka, kaalyado ka, o karelihiyon ka ng mga nakaupo sa DepEd. “ Nagkamot ako ng ulo sabi ko, “ May lugar naman para sa pulitika.
