Roles and Responsibilities of a Teacher

Teacher’s legal roles and responsibilities in the United States is a very important to know, especially for new teachers. Along the way of teacher’s career, and as a public figure, they have the same rights as anybody. The Bill of Rights assurances each citizen the rights to bear arms, free speech, and religion, the Constitution helps teachers to understand their rights. A teacher 's responsibility is vital to guaranteeing that every child obtains the best education possible while protecting their health and safety. No Child Left Behind (Klein, 2015), FERPA, INTASC helps teachers to understand the meaning of student’s academic level and success.

Utilisation of the Teaching Learning Cycle in conjunction with the NSW Quality Teaching Framework to design class programs that are specific to the needs of each individual student. Furthermore, I consistently assess student outcomes through diagnostic, formative and summative assessment, this data is then used to revise, reflect and improve my classroom practice. Successful reflection has allowed me to mould an effective teaching pedagogy that caters for each individual student.

The teaching and learning cycle is about how we assess and teach learners and the different stages of teaching and learning. There are four stages in the teaching and learning cycle: initial and diagnostic assessment, course and lesson planning, teaching and learning, and assessment and review (summative and formative assessment). Each stage is key in determining what happens in the next stage and that ‘the cycle involves a complex interweaving of the two’: teaching and learning (Derrick and Gawn, in Schwab and Hughes 2010: 282. Gravells suggest that for teaching and learning to be effective, all stages must be addressed (Gravells 2012).

They must be able to communicate information clearly and concisely both literally and practically, plan and develop resources that can be drawn upon to enhance different peoples learning styles and reinforce learning. Responsibilities of the teacher are numerous and include keeping mandatory records such as registers, and records of students progress, attending meetings, marking, preparing and reviewing work.

First of all, the teacher should have a proper and loving attitude toward the student. The teacher should be respectful of the student for a healthy education that nourishes both student’s intelligence and character to occur.

The daybook clearly outlines the expectations, duties and roles of a teacher. I wrote the daybook with the background knowledge of the students and their different abilities within the classroom setting.

Our life is determined since childhood by the people we meet along our way. Parents are those who gave birth to us and who educate us daily. But a big part of our lives, we spend in school with people who become our second parents and who help us find our powerful skills and achieve great habits of mind. These people are our teachers! They are our mentors who help us learn not only reading and writing, but also discover ourselves and the art of living, consequently the art of living WELL.

In the education field there are many careers but the one that is being research is Elementary school teacher. The education field is filled with varieties of choices to go into such as; school counseling, high school teaching, or a school principal. A school counselor works with students individually to assess them with academic, career, college access, and social-emotional competencies. Individuals in this field work in private or public elementary, middle and high schools. A high school teacher is a bit more different than the elementary one. High school teachers usually specialize in a specific subject. Someone who is interested in becoming a High school teacher most likely will enjoy spending time with young adults and helping them prepare students after graduation. A principal is a leader within the school community. They are responsible for managing tasks and ensure a safe learning to all students.

Imagine what the world would be like without teachers? Teaching is a very tough job and it is nearly impossible to imagine our world without teachers in it. We are impacted every day by teachers, there wouldn’t be doctors, scientists, lawyers, etc. without them. Everyone has one teacher that they looked up to more than anyone else. There are many different types of teachers and each and every one of them plays a huge role in our lives. For example, history teachers help make sure that our past is not doomed to repeat itself by teaching us of our past mistakes. Every teacher contributes a piece to the puzzle. Teaching is an amazing job, however, there are many difficulties to being a teacher and not many people are willing to fill the shoes of these teachers.

I will base all my lessons off of the district's curriculum. I will add fun activities to support those lessons, find fun projects, and play games that go with the lesson or concept I am teaching. I will do these thing so my students aren’t bored and so that the classroom environment isn’t plain. My teaching styles and strategies will be chosen by me thinking back to previous and old teacher I have had in the past and include the ones that have stuck with me to show in my teaching. A lot of my personality will reflect in the way I teach. Classroom management strategies I will use to keep my classroom in check will be implementing classroom procedures. These may include lining up in a straight quiet line when exiting the classroom, and come into the classroom ready to learn. There will also be set rules such as raining you hand when you have something to say, being kind to one another, always trying you best, come into the classroom with a positive attitude, and most importantly have fun! There will always be students who are different and learn differently, so I will need to be aware of it and make accommodations for those kids. For example, for someone who has a

Demonstrate your understanding of the teacher’s role in engaging children fully and actively in the learning process

In the life long process of learning, the role of the teacher is immeasurable, indispensable and equally essential as far as the education process and its sector in totality are concerned. Teachers are a component of the drivers behind the success of education in general. The contribution and the concerns of learners is another pivotal component that does not only compel the education process but also makes learning and education necessary. The most important element of the success of learning is the professionalism of the teachers and the commitment and dedication of the learners or students themselves. Teacher professionalism is ideal for fruitful learning process and adequate outcome. In regard of Professor Alison Wolfman's recommendation of the integration of QTLS in the teaching of schools across the board, the institute for Learning (IfL) took it upon itself to enhance the implementation of this policy. This was undertaken after explicit consideration of the idea and its perceived importance and contribution, in the life long process. The role played by the teachers should be supplemented by leaners' efforts to acquire effective skills and knowledge. Teachers should not only play the traditional role of dispensing information, but should integrate the contemporary needs of learning and teaching as is justified by the changing times. The roles of the teacher and those of the learners though

A bud can not bloom into a nourished flower without the proper patience and care. It must receive water and obtain direct sunlight in order to flourish. Similarly, a school must utilize patience and care to properly aid students to develop into nourished flowers. One of the ways a school nourishes their flowers is having expectations for students, as too much lee-way could lead to chaos. In addition to patience, care, and expectations, the mechanism in which teachers teach makes an impeccable difference in the classroom. Teachers have a choice of how to teach their students in order to have the material absorbed into their brains like a sponge. A teacher’s job has many complications due to the fact that every student has their strengths and weaknesses. Exploiting those weaknesses and relishing in those strengths should remain how a classroom works. To build a superior school, almost every student must feel as if they are learning something new each and every day. Project-based learning has the potential to take a student’s strengths and weaknesses and put them to good use. To build a greater school, the incorporation of project-based learning proves to have many assets due to the benefits that influence students inside and outside of school.

Ultimately, the role of the teacher is to advance student learning. Although I am not presently employed as a teacher, after many years as a student I have come to appreciate that it is the teachers who supported me in my quest for understanding as a person and as a learner that I valued the most and whose lessons remained with me many years later. A teacher can be friendly, but being a good teacher is not synonymous with being a 'best friend' and only requiring the class to do what it wants to do. Conversely, a good teacher is not simply a disciplinarian. The teacher needs to be responsive to the needs of students and be willing to listen to their input and feedback from formative learning assignments such as quizzes and essays. Although the teacher may be the guiding intelligence that steers the class in its ultimate direction, the teacher must still be in dialogue with what students are telling him or her along the way and be willing to change course when necessary to arrive with all students 'on board.' Particularly with adult students who bring the richness of their perspective to the classroom, teachers must have an 'ear' for student concerns.

In discussing and exploring whether the recent changes and implementation of the Further Education Sector will actually lead to dramatic improvements in the teaching of English to second language learners, one must consider a variety of factors. Some of these factors are subjective such as questions about the dynamic of teachers and student interactions and pedagogical philosophies; some however, are more objective and are concerned with testing requirements and the empirical efficacy of various TESOL tools. What will become clear is that student success lies at the intersection between the formalistic data driven pedagogy of TESOL education and the dynamic interpersonal component of teaching that cannot be tested but is an integral qualitative component of providing such services. In the first instance I am concerned with normative questions about what the role and responsibilities of the teacher ought to be. In the second instance I am interested in exploring the legislative requirements for successfully teaching in the FE Sector. Finally, I will address the interaction between the two sets of requirements as it applies to the practical administration of the new skills sets for both the practioner and the student.
