THE ROLE OF THE TEACHER
The role of a teacher is to create
in the classroom an environment that could integrate different kinds of
learning styles. A teacher would take different roles from one activity
to another and must teach with methods
and assessment consistently. What I mean with that is that teacher must go in a
systematically order from the most simple until reach certain level of
difficulty. A teacher must be clever and use multiple teaching techniques
appropriate for students learning goals by design activities in which students
interact with the material, the teacher and each other. It also would motivate
intrinsically students to learn. There are seven principles to help the teacher
to create a pupil adjusted class.
1.
Teachers do learning tasks less.
|
Assign to students some of the tasks organizing
the content, giving examples, summarizing, etc.
|
2. Teachers do less telling; students do more
discovering.
|
Let students discover information in assigned
readings without presenting it first or summarizing it later.
|
3.
Teachers do more design work.
|
To motivate engagement in the course content by
doing the work of practitioners in the discipline.
|
4.
Faculty do more modeling.
|
Revealing and modeling your thinking process to
your students could follow. Show them drafts of your articles, notes, etc.
|
5. Faculty
do more to get students learning from and with each other.
|
Create tasks activities for small groups to do in
class.
|
6. Faculty
work to create climates for learning.
|
The teacher should promote interaction, autonomy,
and responsibility
|
7. Faculty
do more with feedback.
|
The teacher
should give frequent feedback.

In this chapter is explain clearly
the role of a teacher. We as teacher must take in to account that we develop
our pupil’s skills. To reach that improvement we as teachers must use supplementary
materials as well as methodology. Cooperative
learning is also useful because it said that pupils may learn by each other.
