...Article excerpt Introduction In order to achieve America's educational goals, it is imperative that excellent teachers be recruited, prepared, and supported in every school (National Research Council, 1999; Pikulski, 2000). Professional development, as defined by Hassel (1999), is the process of improving staff skills and competencies needed to produce outstanding educational results for students. Teachers are becoming recognized as the centerpiece of educational change; active and powerful change agents who have the power to make a difference, both individually and collectively (Castellano and Datnow, 2000; Hurst, 1999). Reform efforts must address core processes of teaching and learning if they are to markedly change what happens in schools. Teachers must explore implementation of research insights in their own classrooms regarding needs, interest, instructional history, and proficiency of individual students. Teacher beliefs about an innovation, its consequences, concerns, and contextual variables associated with it, are important in determining teacher behavior (Burke et al., 1996; Castellano and Datnow, 2000; Kennedy and Kennedy, 1996; Laine and Otto, 2000; Ros and van den Berg, 1999). Attitude, in conjunction with action, are critical change factors (C. Kennedy and J. Kennedy, 1996). Ultimately, the individual teacher determines the extent to which any innovation occurs. With that in mind, the best teachers never assume they have arrived, but constantly strive to refine...

...with the school’s goal of instructional improvement. “Educational philosophies relate to an individual’s belief system and to a corresponding method of supervision”(Goldhammer, R., 1969). I believe that leadership should push teachers for professional growth. When a teacher is achieving professional growth, leaders will be able to determine whether to guide, model, and/ or inform based on their rate of achievement. Leaders and teachers are at the epicenter of learning. Students expect us as educators to guide them through the learning process “feeding’ them the best amount of education in order to perform and compete with the rest of the world. When we receive excellence from students, it will be known that achievement has been met. This essay demonstrates my personal philosophy of supervision. One of the most tangible assets within all leaders / supervisors is their ability to use effective interpersonal skills to mold and shape their school community. Interpersonal skills are the abilities that will allow a person to interact positively and work effectively with others. When developing these skills, a important goal for success is acquiring training and professional development that will make the skills stronger with one another. This development of interpersonal skills will allow various issues in the school community to be handled appropriately. These skills have many areas. The areas that seem to be most important are communication, listening, and directing/ delegating. More...

...A Comparison of Andragogy to Pedagogy Before the differences between Andragogy and Pedagogy can be examined a working definition of both needs to be established. Pedagogy is derived from the Greek words paid and agogus, which translates to the art and science of teaching children (Sarapin and Bertoline, 2000). Pedagogy is in actuality the study of being a teacher, the process of teaching, and the correct use of instructional strategies (“Pedagogy,” 2011). Pedagogy helps teachers understand the role of learning theory in the design and function of class activities (Okojie, Olinzock, and Okojie-Boulder, 2006). Pedagogy evolved in 7th and 12th century schools of Europe and its foundational theories about learning and learners are based on observations of monks teaching simple skills to children. These ideas were further adopted and reinforced in 18th and 19th century Europe and North America elementary schools. Even in the beginning stages of the scientific study of learning around the turn of the 20th century, research was limited to mostly the reactions of children. Because of this pedagogy evolved into a learning model predominately for the education of pre-adults (Holmes and Abington-Cooper, 2000). In the early 20th century when adult education began emerging, teachers of adults began seeing problems with the pedagogical model. One of the biggest problems was that pedagogy proposes that the purpose of education was the transmittal of knowledge and skills through the...

...Running Head: PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION Personal Philosophy of Supervision Andrea Byars EDA 551 Supervision and Instructional Leadership Grand Canyon University December 15, 2010 Personal Philosophy of Supervision Jean Jacques Rousseau once made the statement that, “Plants are shaped by cultivation and men by education. ... We are born weak, we need strength; we are born totally unprovided, we need aid; we are born stupid, we need judgment. Everything we do not have at our birth and which we need when we are grown is given us by education”. This statement makes it clear that it is imperative that students be taught how to think and speak in a proper manner so that they will be able to rationalize truths for themselves; thus meaning that administrators need to believe in, value, and be committed to the educability of all. Why then, is it important for an educational leader to have a personal philosophy regarding supervision? Establishing values and beliefs is essential to a person becoming an effective leader. Buddha once said, “Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense” (53 BC -483 BC). Glickman, Gordon, and Ross-Gordon, wrote “…a supervisor’s actions in working with teachers are based on supervisory beliefs, which in turn reflect a broader educational philosophy” (pg. 96). This means that the fundamental purpose of a leader’s supervisory stance...

...all with implications for changes for the future of the discipline. 2.1 Economic Literacy One of the goals of economic education is fostering economic literacy among students, therefore, it is important to define economic literacy and relate this goal back to instructor’s style of teaching economics as well as what economic literacy means. One definition of economic literacy is the ability to go beyond classroom learning and to use economic concepts in one’s own life, even years after being in the classroom ( Salemi, 2005). 2.2 Economic Education Economics education involves the use of appropriate teaching methodology in the understanding of economics as a concept and facilitates the in-depth residual knowledge of the learners in order for them to contribute meaningfully to the growth and development of the society. Economics education involves imparting knowledge effectively by making use of learners centered approaches to promote learner self confidence in tackling economic problems (NOU,2012). 2.3 Present State of Economic Education There has been a great deal of research on economic education. Much of the research has focused on the effectiveness of economics courses, which in turn has engendered discussions on what the goal of economic education should be and how to achieve that goal, specifically what curriculum should be followed and what, if any, instructional techniques have the biggest impact (Lisa, 2012). One of the studies claimed that economics has not been...

It's about understanding the emotion and intentions behind the information. Effective communication is also a two-way street. It’s not only how you convey a message so that it is received and understood by someone in exactly the way you intended, it’s also how you listen to gain the full meaning of what’s being said and to make the other person feel heard and understood.

...learn, as well as the principles of motivation as applied to instructional design. The intent of the paper is to be pragmatic in focus and it is written to educators for use in the classroon. The applications of motivation theory in education are limited only by one’s imagination. Definition Inertia is a property of matter by which it remains at rest or in uniform motion in the same straight line unless acted upon by some external force. Motivation can be defined as the internal drive directing behavior towards some end. Motivation helps individuals overcome inertia. External forces can influence behavior but ultimately it is the internal force of motivation that sustains behavior. People work longer, harder and with more vigor and intensity when they are motivated than when they are not. As an instructor I often consider student motivation to be up to the student. Such abstract concepts as attitude and needs are personal and not easy for an instructor to address.. Adult educators are dealing with a group of individuals whose needs and motivations are very diverse. Life experience widens the gap between students and creates a diversity that is important in learning. Instructional designers must meet the chalenge of designing instruction that is motivating. There are a number of motivational techniques which have a great bearing on instructional design. The potential benefits of attention to motivation in instructional design are many. 1 Components of the Motivation to Learn ...

...The Classical (Structural) Organizational Theory was introduced in the early 1900s, with an emphasis on the efficiency of the work process. Within this theory there are three schools of thought that include scientific management, bureaucratic management, and administrative management. Scientific Management looks at the best way to perform a job. Frederick Taylor is credited for the development of this principal. Taylor’s approach emphasized increasing productivity by focusing on the efficiency of the production process. Taylor believed that the only way to expand productivity was to raise the efficiency of the workers. He believed that doing this would create more work for more workers and increase production while shortening hours for workers. His theory states that jobs should be designed so that each worker has a well-specified, well-controlled task and specific procedures and methods for those jobs have to be strictly followed (Shafritz & Ott, 2001). This approach would keep workers mentally focused on the task at hand and eliminate the feeling of just putting in time. Production came first and works came second. Taylor developed four principals of scientific management: (1) discover the most efficient way to complete tasks, 2) designate workers to tasks which they are the most qualified to complete, 3) workers must be supervised and either rewarded or punished based on their performance, and 4) managements position consisted of planning and controlling (Shafritz &...

...1 Teachers’ Views of Computers as Catalysts for Changes in Their Teaching Practice Sara L. Dexter and Ronald E. Anderson University of Minnesota Henry Jay Becker University of California, Irvine This paper was published in the Journal of Research on Computing in Education. The citation for it is: Dexter, S., Anderson, R. E., & Becker, H. J. (1999). Teachers’ views of computers as catalysts for changes in their teaching practice. Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 31 (3), 221239. Abstract: In this study we examined the use of computers by teachers in their instructional practices and their perception of the impact of computers on changes they have made to their classroom practice. These data draw from 47 teachers from 20 K-12 schools across 3 states who each completed a questionnaire, participated in 3 semi-structured interviews, and allowed 3 observations of their classroom. The teachers who had adopted more progressive teaching practices over time felt computers helped them change but they did not acknowledge computers as the catalyst for change. Instead, they cited catalysts that included: reflection upon experience, classes taken, and the context or culture of the school. We conclude that in order for teachers to implement the use of educational technology in a constructivist manner, they must have opportunities to construct pedagogical knowledge in a supportive climate. Research funded by the program of Research on Education Policy and Practice at the National...
