MODELS OF TEACHING

 REFLECTION

1. Create a chart that lists the advantages and disadvantages of each of the 6 teaching models. For each, consider the points of view of the students, the teacher, and parents/guardians, and society.

  ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
FOR STUDENTS    
FOR TEACHERS       

FOR PARENTS/GUARDIANS

   

FOR SOCIETY

   

2.  Speculate about how Jensen would evaluate these models? What about Piagett or Kohl or other authors we read last quarer?

3. Think about writing each of lesson plans. Which came more easily to you? Which were difficult for you? Given what came more easily to you, what worldview does this suggest that you lean toward? What does this tell you about your personal strengths and possible areas to improve or be conscious of in your teaching choices?
