1) Critical reflection of Pedagogy, Behaviorism and Constructivism on the educational context.
Paradigms can be referred to a set of basic beliefs or custom that guides individuals on how they perform certain things and how they behave to a certain situation. A concept paradigm can also be the values that characterizes individuals on how they learn and understand a certain lesson and the capabilities to respond to that lesson being provided. In the basis of its vital role it plays in the school context is that it keeps teachers aware of their learner’s belief systems and they are capable of resolving learner’s matters because they know and differentiate between learner’s paradigms and philosophies, so it may be a simple process to deal with

Another learner was eating in the classroom while the break time is over and the attention was not on the lesson so once the teacher saw that he then decided to call him and ask the cause, the learner responded sensitively that he was so hungry that he couldn’t even pay his full attention to the learning because for him to get that food he was eating he has to fetch water for the staff that lives at the cottage and since they comes from different milieu he then understand that he responded by saying that can he stops just up until the period is over. So by that conversation we can understand that the behaviorism was applied by both the teacher and the learner because after, the learners paid his attention. The are other techniques or methods to improve behaviorism in the classroom situation such as;
Positive techniques
Smiling at learners after a response and make some correction if supposed.
Praising the abilities and selecting them for special project to make them see that they are special and to enjoy their learning.
Negative techniques
Punishing leaners can also be a negative method but also a positive depending on the attitudes and the background of them, in the school I observed my teaching practice learners were only disciplined by the principal and it worked a lot because they were all afraid of
Giving students school suspension or even expulsion gives these students consequences so that
As aforementioned, I would collaborate with my students about the type of consequences that they would have if they made poor choices that broke one of the rules. The type of consequence that I would use the least in my classroom would be the conventional consequences. In my opinion, removing students from the learning environment, unless absolutely necessary, is a disservice to students. This is not to say that some of the consequences may remove students from their working environment, because they might, but students will always be in the classroom. To better explain my point, consider the following example: Joe is working with his group during math centers, and he begins to throw the manipulatives at his classmates.
Ray’s Theory We love our “Hero’s.” In Robert B. Ray’s essay, The Thematic Paradigm, he explains that Americans have always been undecided about the value of civilization. Whether in real life or fictional, there is a contrast in the “Hero” type. First being the “Official Hero,” one who is responsible, usually having a family, job and one who believes “you can’t take the law into your own hands.”
As a leader within an organisation it is crucial that you understand how to communicate your organisation’s mission and goals to those around you. In this section we will examine this process in detail. 1st of all I provide a company handbook to all my employees which include all objectives, values and standards. So they can read and understand everything. They got opportunity to ask question and give their feedback.
"In a non-punitive, “Discipline Without Punishment” approach, there's a new step added to the process — a positive contact. Just as the policy is expected to resolve employee problems when they arise, it also makes clear that supervisors are expected to recognize employees when they perform well." This approach this about correcting the behavior in a constructive way. This approach has been proven very successful. According to an article written by Harvard Business Review, titled, "Discipline Without Punishment": A nonpunitive approach to discipline represents the company’s refusal to make an employee’s career decision.
4.0 An Explanation of Realism, Liberalism, Constructivism and Post-Structuralism. 4.1 Realism Realism or political realism prioritizes national interests and security concerns in addition to moral ideology and social reconstruction. The term is often associated with political power. The term is often associated with political power. Realism believes that the state is the main actor of the most important in determining the direction of a country.
Stella young is a disabled woman who gives a Ted talk on why she is not your inspiration. In this talk she mentions how disabled people as a whole are seen as making huge achievements and being an inspiration to others when they are just living their normal lives. Stella goes on to explain how when she was younger her community wanted to nominate her for an achievement award even though she had done nothing out of the ordinary, but just because she is in a wheelchair. It’s common to idolize images of men and women who are “beating the odds” and are doing things “despite” their disability, when in reality they are “using their body to the best of their ability” (Young, 2014) I agree with Stella’s argument here.
In accordance with Piaget’s theory, the learner interacts with objects and events available in the physical and social environment and therefore comprehends the objects or events using the process of assimilation, accommodation and equilibration. The learners, therefore, construct their own conceptualizations and use them to generate solutions to problems. This theory also suggests that humans create and construct knowledge as they try to bring meaning to their experiences. In the differentiated classroom, teachers should facilitate the learning process by organizing learning activities and using variety of aid material according to the level of students’ cognitive structure to enable them to construct knowledge through their
Introduction It is very important to study about the development of the human. Because it provides framework to think about human growth, their mental development, and the most important one, ‘their learning’. As a teacher it is very important to study about these theories. Because it have a close relationship with the development of the students and their learning behavior (Michael, 2012) .
There are five different types of learning theories, behaviorism, cognitivism, humanism, social learning, or constructivism. All of them propose various ways through which learning is realized. However, there is no single set of learning theory, which if followed to the latter can grant a tutor a perfect outcome in the classroom. For many years, the study of learning has resulted in heated debates. It has been at the center of educational psychology.
Theories that as future educator will need to be understood and explored. Some if not all these theory’s will be used in the classroom. Vygotsky, Piaget, Bruner, and Bloom all set out to establish a foundation for education, whether through building skills such as pre-reading, language, vocabulary, and numeracy. It becomes the educators job to implement theories into the classroom for children's cognitive development. The theorist discussed in this paper, have had made a profound effect on
During both observation days there was no behavior problems. It was a well obtained class, and I am excited to continue participating in this classroom. One student during the classes library visit came up and gave me a big hug. He would not let go for the longest time. This class has a special place in my heart and I only been in there two times.
Any punishment that is used should be pre-planned and mildly unpleasant. Students should know the consequences of inappropriate behaviors and quietly adhere to the outcomes of their actions (Charles,
A social constructivist viewpoint needs a view that teachers have a responsibility for understanding the nature and level of each child’s learning and to use that knowledge to build their practices in a way that is relevant for particular children in particular contexts. Such a viewpoint can notify practices for insertion that are based on a very dynamic model of children’s learning. Finally, contructivism 's utmost influence to education may be through the change in emphasis from knowledge as a creation to deliberate as a process. This legacy of constructivism to be expected demonstrates to be a fixed and significant modification in the structure of
Instructive idea is a subject that has altered throughout the decades, and still nowadays not every person is in complete special consideration to the subject. In any case, one thing is sure rationality is the establishment of educational styles. There are four basic philosophies: Realism, Idealism, Pragmatism and Existenlism. Each of the four philosophies are altogether different, however all make progress toward a similar objective, to better our education framework. Although each teacher has an alternate style of showing that can be viewed as their own, they follow one of the four fundamental theories.
