What are we 'teaching' ?

by JAE

Aug 6, 2014

Feedback please :)

this is my view on 'teaching' as I don't believe we are there to attempt to teach children anything, but only there to provide opportunities in which they can learn at their own interest and readiness.

What are we 'teaching' ?

So you’re a teacher?

Ask yourself this, what do you teach?

And your answer? Well maybe you would answer: I TEACH children, I TEACH adults, I TEACH Maths, I TEACH Physics, I TEACH English… well let me distinguish…

How? How you do you TEACH these things?

According to the dictionary to teach means “to impart knowledge to or instruct (someone) as to how to do something” Well I guess the next question would be who needs to be taught? Infants? Toddlers? Children? Parents? Adults? Sisters? Mothers? Fathers? Brothers? Who?

Everyone needs someone to teach them right? Wrong.

Why not? It’s really quite simple…

Children don’t need to be taught to walk...See More

maureen to op I am not quite sure what your post is supposed to mean or is trying to do. What you are saying is nothing new when it comes to what education and teaching means in our country. However, as long as the perception remains that a child's brain is "empty" and needs to be filled with knowledge by others, the educational system as it is set up currently ...See More

Valerie I too, am not entirely sure with the purpose of you questions and comments but I'm in total agreement with what you say and love the quotes you used. I teach in Ontario, Canada, where full-day Kindergarten is just in the final year of roll out. Full Day Kindergarten is being adopted, in many boards, with a strong play-based/inquiry based approach. ...See MoreI too, am not entirely sure with the purpose of you questions and comments but I'm in total agreement with what you say and love the quotes you used. I teach in Ontario, Canada, where full-day Kindergarten is just in the final year of roll out. Full Day Kindergarten is being adopted, in many boards, with a strong play-based/inquiry based approach. I've heard the term Reggio more times in the past 3 years than I've ever heard in my life. We are being strongly encouraged to ease away from our traditional 'teacher' role, and become 'partners' in learning alongside our children. One thing that I have noticed is the push to throw away any programs that we had been using in the past (e.g., phonics programs such as Jolly Phonics). We, as teachers, are embedding learning in more authentic ways. We are abandoning themes in favour of inquiry, which allows the children to ask questions, do research, plan, collaborate with their peers and be involved participants in the inquiry process. I love it and find the children to be so very positive and motivated towards learning. I am looking forward to a new school year and to see where it takes us.

I find these posts to be a sad indication of the downfall of our profession. Of course, if one is to oversimplify the task of learning, the claim can always be made that providing a circumstance can facilitate a child learning. We can not compare a toddler learning to walk, which is developmentally a musclular task, with higher learning, and more sophisticated mental tasks. Simply put, we have many studies that clearly show that teacher- led, directive lessons produce students who outperform students in classrooms that feature inquiry based learning. Look up the wealth of studies that have proven through testing and measurement the amount of "learning" a student can accomplish in a class with a dynamic, teacher driven method. My students don't get into groups and learn from each other what they all don't know--get real. This is why private schools, which favor more traditional instruction, outperform the product of public schools. I am appalled to hear such faulty logic to defend methods that project the teacher as a useless ornament in a classroom where, supposedly, the students are floating around in groups learning from each other. Why not resign your position, and allow uncertified aids to prompt students to engage in such a fashion. You don't go to a tax accountant, a doctor, a golf pro for lessons only to hear that you learn by discovering the answers. Really? What a sad commentary on our schools today, and sorry for the students having to find their way in such an inefficient system. If a student learns this way successfully, in fact, they never needed such a "teacher" to begin with. Why contain them to the four walls of your classroom. Send them out in to the world where they can use inquiry learning and discovery to learn far more. You are merely holding them back.

The person who just ripped this poor persons head off apologised by saying they did not realise it was a kindergarten posting and that they teach AT older students.. I am in total agreement with this post and I feel like there are too many people within and outside of the profession that are in a hurry to try and teach children and see measure success by their ability to count and read and write before attending school, but where is the focus on what each individual child brings with them. I personally believe the values that enable success would be the ability to explore, create, imagine and have the tools to think outside the box and stand up when they are confused or feel something isn't right. This will produce the future of individuals and resilience. Having the ability to solve something that isn't working or find the answers they may not know is far more important than being judged on what they already know before they attend school. I understand, (I think) and feel this is a valid point. Each child brings with them something special and their own strengths, why should each child be marked against the same box when we try our best to encourage children to be themselves and individuals. No two children are the same and all learn and develop in different ways. That's the way I see it
